In conferences, schools, college classes and more, Cyd Moore's high-energy presentations have delighted all ages. Her illustrations are strokes of magic. Her enthusiasm for life, reading, and art leaves audiences with a new understanding and joy for the world of children's books. "In temperament and manner, Moore embodies southern gentility. She sings her words and spreads her expression as broad upturned brush strokes. The same wonder and innocence captured on the animated faces and settings of her books can be found at the corners of her eyes and mouth," states Frank Provensano, of the Observer & Eccentric Newspapers.
Cyd's slide program traces the beginnings of an art career that began as a preschooler. Charming crayon drawings of earless cats, princesses, and mom and baby brother prove that artists aren't always born with exceptional talent! By practicing what you love and trying hard enough, dreams really do manifest in amazing ways.
Cyd delights kids with spontaneous drawings of wild creatures (teachers can make copies of these for all of the students to color themselves!) A natural storyteller, her hilarious southern adventures have the audience laughing and LISTENING. After experiencing a day with Cyd Moore, everyone is inspired to live their lives with a bit more passion.
Cyd brings a terrific AV presentation and supplies her own A/V equipment. The school will need to supply an overhead projector (for drawing demonstration), screen or white wall, and microphone.

I Miss You, Stinky face Audiobook
The Scholastic Store 
I Miss You, Stinky face Audiobook
by Lisa McCourt and Cyd MooreIn this companion to I Love You, Stinky Face, a little boy has some new queries for his mother. Speaking to her by telephone, he wonders when she is coming home and asks a series of questions starting with "...what if the airplane forgets how to fly?" His mother responds to each worry with a Runaway Bunny-like solution, pledging to "...hop in the basket of a hot-air balloon," "...find the speediest shark in the ocean," or "...hitch a ride on...[a] supersonic spaceship..."-all in an effort to get back to her son. Moore's detailed, full-color drawings include such exotic locales as a lush jungle, a medieval castle, and the gangplank of a pirate ship. The amusing illustrations in muted, dreamy shades spill out over the pages, reflecting the free associations of the text. Although the formula is familiar, the message is reassuring and could be used to prepare children for times when a parent is away from home.
