I love so much when he does it.
I would LOVE to have him come to my classroom
barring that, maybe if he did a youtube in slow motion so we could play it in our classrooms?
Anyone here from his district?

OP
My kid's elementary school PTA would host book signings and speakerships. It cost a boat load.

send him a request.

This is a little slower version (drawing and talking) than I've seen him do before.

Al Franken has a new book out, and he'll probably go on tour.
If you can get a local bookseller to invite him, along with your request, you might have a shot.
Be prepared to pay a lot, because the travel and lodging are all factored into the speaking time. This is why you want to try and combine the ventures, or even host two book signings, one at the school and one at a regional book store. Economy of scale.
