I am heading out to the Cranberry Harvest Festival this weekend – one of my favorite annual events that I have had the privilege to attend!  This fantastic festival boasts all sorts family friendly activities such as face painting, duck boats, jugglers – and a trip to the bog will be both entertaining and educational!  Seeing the hard working people collect the cranberries and transport them into trucks is fascinating – and every child tries to climb the gigantic mound of loose sand to see who can be king of the hill!

I will be at the event all day doing shows at 11:00, 1:00 and 3:00 – so please come by and say hello!  Stick around to laugh along with me as I tell my tales! Please click on the image above for more information!  Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Click the image above to read about why libraries are still one of the most important places we have in out communities!  I love libraries… always will, I think.  Funny enough, on our honeymoon to Hawaii my wife and I were strolling around and I noticed the public library.  We ventured inside and it was very comforting to see the place bustling.

I love getting emails that say things like this:

“Please let me know.  Our student population (particularly the younger ones and their parents are asking if you’ll be back again this year!). “

It makes my whole day!

My shows at the Steeple School this week are celebrating National School Choice Week and Wicked Local did a nice write up of the event.  Click on the Hulk above for the link and enjoy!

The snow has played a bit of havoc on the schedule this week.  The Preschool Building Stories for today has been cancelled – but will be rescheduled as soon as I get in touch with the librarian.  My Steeple School show on Tuesday, and even the Growth Unlimited show I had scheduled for yesterday and today are being moved to other days.  No worries though – people always work together when the weather hits us hard!

May this day be shared with family and fun and a whole lot of incredibly wonderful food!  For you, above I have a cartoon from my series “The Kid Inside”.  All of these cartoons are written and drawn by me!  Hope you enjoy!

It’s a little over-due – but it id finally updated and current… at the moment.  I still have to email people back and return voicemails which may add shows to the roster.  That’s never a bad thing though…

Go to the Upcoming Shows page TODAY!

I will try to post pics of my kiddos in their costumes – but if I don’t do it on time then I want to at least wish everyone out there a very Happy Halloween!

Come to the Kingston Mall today at 1:00pm where I will be performing!  I will be telling stories and making all the kiddos laugh with my puppet friends!  You know, the usual amazing show.  If I do say so myself.  Click the image abe for more information.

I know it’s sort of late for a “This Week” but since my week technically doesn’t start until my first show of the week – which is tomorrow – then I should still be good to go.  So here it is – my week’s rundown of all the shows I am doing:

• Wednesday – 10:30AM – Rowley Public Library, Rowley, MA
• Wednesday – 6:30PM – Ventress Memorial Library, Marshfield, MA
• Thursday – 5:30PM – Uphams Corner Library, Dorchester, MA
• Saturday – 1:00PM – Independence Mall, Kingston, MA

All of these shows are free to the public to attend and hope to see everyone there!  Make sure you come early!  All of these shows celebrate the fall and back to school!  Click on the show you’d like to attend for more information.

Also, I have been invited back to the Cranberry Harvest Celebration in October – this event is one of my favorites by far!  Click the link for more info on this as well – and put it on your calendar because this is an all day family event that you don’t want to miss!
