"What Fellow Librarians Say;
You
Can Get These Impressive Results Too!"
"What
was really exceptional is the way you blended this summer's theme,
"One World, Many Stories," into your performance. You
fully reinforced the message that Los Angeles Public Library wants
youngsters to take to heart: read, learn, and enjoy the public
library. The audience of kids, parents, caretakers, and counselors
enjoyed the playful way you integrated music, stories, comedy, magic and
audience participation. The adults were mesmerized and the kids were
enthralled by the magic of Jersey Jim. Thank you for bringing the
joy of magic to so many this morning!"
--Ania Bloch,
Senior
Librarian, Tujunga Branch, Los Angeles Public Library

“Most
liked how the children were participating with enthusiasm and the
combining of stories to encourage the kids to read. You gotta get
Jersey Jim if you want the kids to enjoy your program. Very, very
good. We’ll get him again.”
--Vanessa Chua,
Children’s Librarian, Signal Hill Library |
"Your
program was great! And you did indeed go above and beyond...I
liked the way you incorporated the stories into your magic show. You
didn't just say "Reading is Magic," you actually gave short
synopses of...different multicultural children's stories and wove
them into your program. You generated interest in children's
literature for not only the children but their parents as well."
--Roberta Marquez, Library Manager, South El Monte Library |

"The show was awesome!
I highly recommend Jersey Jim! Most liked the book
connections plus library terms and of course the magic!"

“The
whole performance was great. It was child centered, friendly, very
entertaining and interactive. Best about the program was the story
about “The Empty Pot.”

The Big Boo
Halloween Safety Show is the perfect way to celebrate the Halloween season
in a fun and educational way. It's a learning giggle fest.
Between laughter, the children learn Costume Safety, Group Safety, and Candy
Safety. For example, they learn not to eat any treats that are
unwrapped until asking an adult. Spooky-goofy fun, featuring Dracula's
floating skull, Fraken-Rabid, and Casper the Live Bunny who everyone
loves to pet after the show.

Frosty's fun-filled winter magic show is the
perfect way to celebrate the winter season in a non-denominational way.
Hilarious magic routines with penguins, polar bears, gingerbread men,
floating snowballs, and, of course, Frosty the Snowman himself, who makes
his surprise appearance at the end of the show fresh from the North Pole. A thrilling Disney-esque moment that the children will always
remember. It will even snow! This event is perfect from November through March.
