Listen to what they say:

"Thank you for another great show. All the giggles and willing
"volunteers" indicated to me that the children thoroughly enjoy the
program. It was a fantastic way for them to learn a number of ways
they can "Be Creative" without spending a lot of money!"
Susan Serico, Director North Haledon,NJ Free Public Library

"Monday's "Magical Winter Wonderland" program was so much fun, and
the 58 children who attended your show thoroughly enjoyed
themselves. I love your puppets and how you interact with them. The
dog was hilarious, and I really liked the Frosty drawing board. We'll
be having you back in the not too distant future for another wonderful
show.
Mary Feldhaus, Children's Librarian, Eastchester, NY Public Library

Thank you so much for your Aug. 6th performance for the Goshen
Public Library. The children had so much fun. We loved that the
children were able to actually be part of the show. Your Holiday shows
look very interesting, we will keep them in mind for future
programming. Again thanks so much for your wonderfully entertaining
and funny performance.
Yours,
Kitty Ruberte-Smith, Goshen Public Library, Goshen, NY

"Thank you for coming to our Summer Recreation Program at Cedar Hill
and Mount Prospect schools. The children and staff look forward to
your visit every year. They all enjoy the magic shows and the
ventriloquism you put on. You always seem to keep the children
engaged and interested. They all love the jokes and were wowed by
the tricks you put on. The children truly enjoy this part of camp and
it was your support that helped to make the program a success. I
hope to see you next summer. Thanks again for your support.
Jennifer Armstrong, Bernards Township Parks and Recreation,
Basking Ridge ,NJ

" On behalf of the Gloucester County Library and the families, we
would like to thank you for the wonderful show you gave Thursday,
July 22nd at the Greenwich Branch.
The children and parents enjoyed the songs, puppets, magic and stories!
Thank you again for your time to the children and adults of the
Gloucester County library.

Library, Gibbstown, Nj

"Thanks for a great show!"
Karen Zuinski, Head of Children's services, Scarsdale NY Public Library

"We had Bob Conrad today at the Ridgefield Library. He was so very
creative and entertaining – as always. It was so refreshing to see
today’s sophisticated crowd laughing hysterically at a puppet made with
a paper plate and two cups. He entertains with old fashioned fun. I
made a great choice to have him for the kick-off program for the “Be
Creative” theme."
Diane Antezzo, Children's Librarian, Ridgefield Ct. Library

"Thanks so much for presenting such a great "Be creative@your library"
show. You pretty much covered all aspects of creative endeavors;
sprinkled with fun, splashed with joy and dabbed with laughter. "
Brian Cazanave, Children's librarian, Cliffside Park NJ Public Library

"Thank you so much for doing the kick-off party for our SUMMER
READING GAME 2009. Many people, adults and children, told me how
much they enjoyed your program. I am sure we will be happy to have
you here next year."
Judith L. Clark, Children's Librarian, Harrison NY Public Library.

"Thank you so much for your recent presentation of "Puppets,Puppets,
Puppets" at the Verona Public Library. The children had so much fun
watching you make the different types of puppets, and made from a
variety of materials, come alive before their eyes.
As usual, there was plenty of humor, excitement and just palin fun.
We are all looking forward to your next performance at the Verona
Library"
Rebecca Burkhart, Children's Librarian, Public Library, Varona NJ

"It is not enough to say thank you for your magical presentation of
"Fun with Ventriloquism.." You were splendid. You took an art form
which has not been available and presented it to an audience of all
ages on a level that all attending could enjoy. You were awesome. We
laughed and marvelled at the characters brought to life through the
medium of ventriloquism. All present were amused and commented on
your wit, humor, and skills. We look forward to having you back and
recommend your shows."
Alma J. Henderson, Director, Saddle Brook NJ Free Public Library

"As ever , your show is a delight both to the children and to the
adults. We have had the pleasure of your performances for several
years now and have always found them entertaining. Few performers
have had as much response and laughter as you have had.
James Garland, Director, Mount Arlington Public Library, Mount
Arlington, NJ

"We were very pleased with your recent performance of the show
"Bugs, Bees, Spiders & Magic" that was performed at the Passaic
Public Library for our Summer Reading Program's Family Night on
Monday, July 14th.
It was a fantastic show, which kept the audience (both young and
older) members captivated and indeed was a large-sized audience.
The children's laughter filled the room !
We look forward to inviting you back again to perform for us for our
Summer Reading Program or another holiday show."
Georgina Cepeda, Children's Librarian, Forstmann Library, Passaic, NJ

"What is so especially nice about your programs is that they entertain
children and parents alike."
Mary Lee Bulat, Children's Librarian, Harwinton Public Library,
Harwinton, Ct.

Shackamaxon. The children were really entertained and had a great
time."
Jerome D. Louie, General Manager, Shackamxon Country Club,
Scotch Plains, NJ

"Thank you for performing "Bugs, Bees, Spiders & Magic" at the
Oxford Public Library. The children and their parents really enjoyed
themselves! This program was made up of a wonderful combination of
humor, magic, and bug facts. I especially liked when you taught the
concept of metamorphosis by magically changing a group of brightly
colored scarves and a white caterpillar scarf into one beautiful
butterfly scarf.
The library would be happy to recommend you as a performer to other
venues."
Marissa Ciullo, Children's Librarian, Oxford Public Library,Oxford, Ct.

"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for participating in our
annual community day. As usual, your performance was exceptional.
There was a lot of laughter from both the children and adults alike.
We had many comments from our residents saying how much they
enjoyed your show.
I hope you will be able to join us again next year. We know that we,
as well as our residents, will not be disappointed."
Margaret B. Dilts, Administrator, Township of Lopatcong, NJ

Attached are some pictures from the event.
Hope we can work together again soon!"
Jaclyn Newcome,Children's Librarian, New Brunswick Public Library,

engaged the entire time. The children were talking about how funny it
was for weeks to come, We will definitely have him back again!"
Marisa Rodriguez, director, Rhymes & Reasons, Teaneck, NJ

serves, I would like to commend you on your terrific magic show held
