FREE AUTHOR VISIT???
I hate to disappoint, as an ex-teacher I know it can be difficult financing visits, but I am really sorry - I am unable to work for free or publicity. Please, please - don't ask as I hate to disappoint. Here's a blog by author/illustrator James Mayhew explaining why authors need to charge (Sorry he sounds a bit grumpy! FREE STUFF! YES! You can contact my publisher Nosy Crow for freebies though (press@nosycrow.com). You might get some bookmarks or posters for your author walls. Also, engage with your local bookseller, they often have posters etc they want to pass on. If this is the first time you've arranged an author visit you may find these links useful.
