I've had the pleasure of sharing my books and experiences as a writer with audiences of all ages and sizes, from pre-schools to universities. My presentations include explaining the writing process and my culture and traditions and involve visuals and artifacts when appropriate. Please get in touch using the form on the "contact me" section of this site to see how we can design a visit that fits your school's or group's needs.
Artwork by students at Ritchie Park Elementary School"Ms. Khan’s visit to share her sensitively-written and beautifully -illustrated book, Night of the Moon, was the perfect prelude to our fourth grade study of Islam. She was able to arouse in our students an awareness of and interest in her cultural and religious traditions through personal anecdotes and hands-on experiences. Brava to Ms. Khan!"

"Our student population is extremely diverse, and our collection was in dire need of books that discuss Ramadan in an open and creative manner for elementary school students. Hena Khan’s The Night of the Moon: A Muslim Holiday Story is the perfect book to enhance our collection. I was delighted that Ms. Khan agreed to come visit our school. Ms. Khan’s presentation, which included wonderful visuals and artifacts, was excellent. The students, many of whom knew nothing about Ramadan, loved every minute. Most importantly, Ms. Khan was sensitive to those students who celebrate Ramadan and were therefore empowered by her discussion. I highly recommend Ms. Khan."
