Choose Your Own Adventure!
To tie in with the 2025 Book Week theme, ‘Book an Adventure’, Dave Lowe has adapted his popular ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ workshop, as a ‘presentation’-style 45- / 60-minute session for large groups of students, from Years 3 to 8. In this fun, highly-interactive session, Dave will share insights into ideas-generation and plotting, and give each student a story template, as well as all the tips and tricks they’ll need to make their own short ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’-style book that they can take home and try out on friends and family.

What people are saying
Speakers Ink makes it easy for me to locate and engage quality authors for our Book Week program
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit from Brian Falkner. The kids are still desperate to get their hands on his books when it comes to borrowing time each week! Brian was funny, entertaining and creative in his approach with the kids. His presentation was fantastic and even the teachers were raving after his day with us. We would definitely recommend him to other schools and certainly have him back again.
Paula’s presentation was greatly appreciated by participants, who found it very inspiring and useful.
Your presentation was fascinating and I thought the way you linked the story with the research process and family connection was perfect
Our students were thoroughly engaged throughout Joel's energetic performance. He tailored his talk to meet our current speaking and listening student needs and fostered a love of reading. Thank you!
Our student's at St Joseph's have been reading Corinne's books in for many years and were so excited for her visit. She did not disappoint, and I would highly recommend her to other organisations. She engaged the students by speaking about her writing and was open to questions from our students. Thank you so much Corinne, we cannot wait for you to visit again.
Teachers: Jacqueline was such a wonderful presenter and has an amazing talent to entertain. Through her witty and humorous tales, she inspires children about the wonders of reading and writing and has left an impact on all children who were lucky enough to hear her. Jacqueline is an inspiring and humorous author who brought entertainment to us all via Zoom during lockdown. The teachers and students loved listening to all her stories! Thank you so much for making our Book Week event so enjoyabl [...]
Megan captivated her audience as she shared valuable insights into her writing process. Megan inspired our students to share their thoughts, ideas and feelings through writing. She made her books come alive as she used excerpts to highlight her ideas. Our students (and teachers) loved her session.
Year 5 students and teachers gained so much from Michelle’s presentation. The teachers took many notes to enhance their poetry unit for next year.
The students and teachers were very impressed with Peter and should funds allow, we would like to have him back again next year.
Our visit from Cartoon Dave was extraordinary. The experience more than met our expectations. Dave was on time, zany and kept the children and adults thoroughly entertained for the duration of their sessions. He was very explicit about what he needed for the visit, without be demanding. I would thoroughly recommend Dave to other schools and especially small schools, such as ours.
Storylines has welcomed Fifi as a featured writer and storyteller on several of our National Story Tours. Her lively approach to storytelling and performing has been enjoyed and appreciated by the various audiences of all ages.
