How thrilling to have the chance to meet face to face and see one another smile so big we hit our ears and light each others hearts.

WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING ABOUT KAT’s BOOKS & PRESENTATIONS:

A book everyone should read and a message I believe,” Professor Muhammad Yunus, Nobel Peace Prize winner, said after they traded books.

An awesome day! The students are still talking about how much they enjoyed your visit and loved your book,” said Cindy Cooksey, Librarian of Perez Elementary.

I had high expectations for Kat’s Author Visit after viewing her website,” said Mary Curat, Principal of Wildwood Elementary Chicago. “She far exceeded them!

School Library Journal writes, “Kronenberg has a laudable mission in wanting people to discover their bliss.”

We recently had Kat speak to our Ladies Group and found her to be a delight. Kat’s enthusiasm and ability to engage the ladies in her presentation made the event not only uplifting but also fun. The story behind the creation of her books was very touching and her steps to writing and publication interesting as well. I would highly recommend Kat as a speaker! Many a grandmother was in line to purchase a book for their grandchildren who will no doubt love the story within.” Nancy Maresh Greater Plano Women’s Group

A 12 year-old foster child at Helping Hands Home in Austin teared up after Kat’s reading. Then enthusiastically said, “You mean I really can be a scientist!”
