The preschoolers just loved Charles' performance.  Hard laughter was heard throughout ... 
​ We always recommend this program to other branches

Charles was instantly engaging!  Even as he assembled his stage and props he pulled kids into the show with questions and funny answers and kept them wondering what might happen next …… I wasn’t quite sure how Biscuit (the dog puppet) would get in on the act, and when he did, I was delighted!  Charles’ interaction with the children was absolutely great.  They followed his every move and word.

His use of rhyme is amazing! -- Susan Smallsreed, Northwest Library, Portland, OR 

Charles’ show is funny, enthralling, educational, and so appropriate for all ages.  His timing is perfect - the repetition and physical humor engaged even the youngest audience members, and got big guffaws from their parents!  Even our most timid audience members loved watching Charles become a clown.

He met the children at their level without talking down to them ... appealed to the very young with his gentle physical humor and to the older set with the constant word plays ... one 9-year-old with Asperger's laughed hysterically during the show and his Mom said he talked about it for days afterword ... I like Charles' professional manner: he returned my call, arrived early, was flexible about where he performed and had a polished performance that was gentle and kind and very age appropriate

I have heard nothing but raves from every branch you've visited. Even one of our more discriminating librarians was absolutely enchanted.
