Bath, PA 18014
On another beautifully sunny spring day, we joined the Moore Pride team of over 400 children at Moore Elementary School to share our Tucker and Zoey Adventures presentation. It was another great day of meeting some amazing kids and inspiring some future authors and illustrators!
Christian and Tim’s presentation of their Tucker and Zoey series to the students at Moore Elementary School was one, if not the, best author/illustrator we’ve had in the 14 years I’ve been Principal of our school! Their blend of humor, passion, kindness and friendship grasped the students’ attention and never let go. Their explanation the writing & illustrating processes they use inspired many students to immediately take their recommendations and put it into their own class work the very same day! Hearing the story behind Tucker & Zoey, as well as Myles, provided a personal touch to their stories and presentation. The students and staff were so excited throughout, and asked the following day to have Christian and Tim come back next year! Great presentation, but even better people – I highly recommend Christian and Tim come to your school!!

Lincoln Elementary School
1260 Gresham St
Bethlehem, PA 18017
We had an amazing time sharing our Tucker and Zoey Adventures presentation for the children at Lincoln Elementary. The comments below from Adrienne and Cindy tell the story better than we can!
The dynamic duo of Christian Bensing and Timothy Feather really wowed us at Lincoln Elementary School! Our students and staff loved every minute. Their message transcends far beyond just writing and drawing pictures; they taught our students the “4P’s” to finding success in ANY aspect of life: have a PASSION, find your PEOPLE, find your PURPOSE, and have PATIENCE. Their amazing presentations (which they geared towards the different grade levels) and author meet and greets definitely inspired our budding authors and illustrators! Many students and their families are still reaching out and talking about their love for rescue pups Tucker and Zoey, and about the great day they had with this awesome duo. They were so easy to work with in preparation for our visit, and their presentations were perfectly planned. It’s obvious they love what they do!
