| Dear
Sharon Bushell and Johnny B., "The Green Oaks Student Council would like to thank the both of you for the wonderful performance. Everyone loved Mrs.Bushell's reading and the piano playing was very entertaining. Hopefully you can come again for the new students that will be coming to this school. After the performance I heard everyone talking about the wonderful music, and that they were dying to read the two books. My sixth grade class had a great time and from what my sister said it sounded like her fourth grade class had an awesome time also. Hope your travels are going well." From, Sam Hibbs - The Green Oaks Student Council, California Nov. 2005 |

"I
have been reading it (The Trouble With Bernie) to my 4th
grade students. They love the book, but the presentation was spectacular.
All the teachers enjoyed it tremendously, oh yes, the students loved it
too!! It was so refreshing to show children another way to read and present stories. In addition, Johnny B.and Sharon talked about writing and how much work it is to revise and rewrite. This fit perfectly with what these students had just completed." Sue Savage - Anderson Elementary - Reno - March 27, 2006 |

"I
have had some very positive feedback regarding your presentation. From
beginning to end, the kids were spell bound. John, your enthusiasm for
music and learning is evident and you transfer that to the kids very effectively.
Sharon, you made Bernie and friends come alive for the kids. They loved
your reading. It demonstrated to me in a whole new way the value in knowing
a story inside and out when sharing it with kids. |
