The program, "Reading is Magic", includes several
characters, magic, singing, and lots of laughs.
Edgar decides that he'll be a "Dr. Seuss Character"
for the day. The audience helps Chester Hound as he learns about
his special abilities and discovers that books are to be read. The
students will learn that following directions is very important,
especially when performing a magic trick. Gus the Bird
shows there's more to animal training than reading a book. It also
takes patience. And Aunt Gabby shares a letter from her nephew Joey
and sings a library rap song. The 40 minute show is a fast paced
blend of ventriloquism, magic, singing, audience participation, and fun
with a message, "Learn to Read and you'll surely Succeed".
