April 2024


I get to visit almost every elementary School in Brockton in the month of May and it begins this week! I am doing shows at both the Davis and Brookfield Schools!

I love being at places like the Children’s Museum of Greater Fall River. Buildings dedicated to creating real opportunities for children to explore STEM skills but also, what I consider the most important, getting to use their imaginations! Room after room of exciting themes like space travel, music, colors and dinosaurs!

 

This is why when I get invited to come and share my stories at a place this fantastic I jump at the chance! Seeing families laugh along with my tales and then run off to discover all the wonders that this place offers, it just makes my whole day!

Starting the final Raising A Reader this fiscal year on Thursday! If you want to partake you should register and come and enjoy! I look forward to returning to the Holmes Library but also look forward to seeing my friends at the Silver Lake Preschool! A nice, quick week and then closing out April with a bang!

Summer has been filling up FAST! I have no July mornings open and August is almost completely full as well. If you’re looking to book something I would love to hear from you and see if we can work out a time for me to visit your program!

At the end of April I begin my last Raising A Reader of the year! If you want to come simply scan the QR code and register yourself. Come to the library and have a blast!

I love hearing back that the kiddos hearing my tales really enjoyed them! I say this all the time, this is a very lonely job – as much as I love it – it’s still a very lonely job. Hearing back from people about how much the children love the shows really means a lot.

Thank you, Suzanne, for the thank you!

As you can see, the flyer says there is not one but TWO days that I am at the Children’s Museum of Greater Fall River! Make sure to come and enjoy this beautiful museum and – even better – MY TALES!

It seems like I have had free public shows each week and I love that – as much as I love going to schools – I also like having shows open to the public for all those kiddos who aren’t in a program yet or have the day off. This week, I am in Kingston again and I can’t wait to see everyone who comes!

It’s not often these days that I see a bird that I haven’t previously seen, but this week I went to the Grist Mill in Plymouth and among the mallards was a water fowl with a bright white spot on it’s head.

I thought it was a green teal at first, but then, after consulting my bird book, I was excited to find out what I was seeing was an American Widgeon. A beautiful bird that I had yet to see, so I was extremely happy to sneak a peek!

 

I am having a blast creating the new Traveling Mystery Room titled: The Monster Mash! Debuting this summer, the game will be all about finding the monster underneath and becoming the leader of your pack! I have so many exciting pieces to show off and fun games to play! Keep an eye out for which libraries are hosting this brand new game!
