Kingston Early Childhood Fair 3.14.15
Posted by Big Ryan under After the ShowComments Off on Kingston Early Childhood Fair 3.14.15
Another successful year at the Early Childhood Fair in Kingston! This year we lucked out with the weather – it was a rainy, dreary kind of day – perfect for coming out to hear stories! I was able to tell a classic, a favorite of mine, to the great crowd. Abiyoyo! Thanks to everyone who came out to hear the stories!

The Storybook Breakfast 3.7.15
Posted by Big Ryan under After the Show , Alexandra News , Antone NewsComments Off on The Storybook Breakfast 3.7.15
What a wonderful and amazing event! What I really liked was seeing all of the characters walking around – straight from the pages of some of our favorite literature! Paddington was there, Stelleluna was hanging around, Curious George was there and even some of the Wild Things were having a rumpus! It was a great time! II even had a couple of the patrons tell me after that I was the “best part” of the event – which is a huge compliment seeing as my competition was the very talented children’s librarian staff and the characters mentioned above! And yes, if you look at the picture above you can see my daughter and son (sitting together) in the front row.

A Nice Surprise…

The Plympton Halifax Express ran an article on my Preschool Building Stories that took place in November at the Holmes Library. I know I had a blast but it’s nice when you get a letter thank you for doing your job. Even better, it’s nice when your job is trying to get people to enjoy telling stories more and more!

Big Ryan Makes the News!

I remember being a young kid seeing the kids from my school get their pictures in the paper for various reasons. Sports, events… I was always jealous. I wanted to do something that would get my picture in the paper. Now, I have been in the paper quite a few times and I have to say, I feel like that little kid again everytime I see a pic of myself in print, this time, proud that I made it into the paper.
The clip above is from a paper in NH where I was in early March this year. Thank you to my Aunt who not only saw the pic – but cut it out and sent it to me.

Here is the awesome crowd of children waiting for me to start my show at the Independence Mall today – and when I began a whole lot more came! It was fantastic! What a turn out! Even better – I put up a “password” on my Facebook page to say to me after the show for a prize and a great number of kids did it! Thanks for that! I’ll be doing it again and again – so if you haven’t liked my Facebook page yet – click here – and do it today!

I had a stellar crowd at the library tonight – especially since my favorite little audience member was in the crowd… Alexandra! She came with me and my wife to have some Halloween fun!
I really do enjoy this time of year! The weather being colder and the crowds are much more colorful – you know, seeing as they are in costume!
