As a librarian, you are probably bombarded with material from all sorts of presenters- how can you make sure the program you are booking is any good?

Probably the best way is to ask people who have seen the program- here are the opinions  of some librarians who have seen Terry's programs for themselves:

" I want to thank you for very much for the great Magic Workshop you did with the children of the Bellmore Library… Everyone there enjoyed it and were eager to try out what they learned. I hope we can ask you to come back very soon."- Deborah Rosenthal, Children's Librarian, Dept. Head, Bellmore Memorial Library, Bellmore, NY

"Thank you for sharing your talents with the children of Mattituck and Laurel this summer. The "Balloon Workshop" was one of our best attended programs, and one we are sure to have again. We look forward to working with you in the future."- Marci Byrne, Head of Children's Services, Mattituck-Laurel Library, Mattituck, NY

"Thank you for the wonderful and entertaining performance which you presented at the library. Certainly, you helped make our final show for the reading program a great success. The children really enjoyed your magic tricks as well as your marvelous sense of humor. Thank you for your patience with such a large group, and for enduring the uncomfortable temperature on the stage."- Frances Contonzo, Children's Librarian, Levittown Public Library, Levittown, NY

"You were so wonderful with the children, and really accomplished a great deal with them in one hour. Every child left very excited, and the parents raved about their balloon creations."- Lili-Ane Bukowy, Children's Librarian, Central Islip Public Library, Central Islip, NY

"Thank you so much for bringing your wonderful magic show to our library this summer. Your show was terrific and a huge hit with all of the children and adults alike!"- Virginia Peterlin, Activities Coordinator, Warren County Library, Washington, NJ

"I'd like to send a word of thanks for your participation during our Summer Reading Club party. We know you were kept quite busy and we do appreciate all you did to make our first Summer Reading Club Open House such a success. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"- Ellen Miller, Children's Librarian, Shelter Rock Library, Albertson, NY

"The children enjoyed the show very much as they were entertained and mystified the entire time. The Comedy Magic Show is an accurate description of the performance that generated laughs and perplexed reactions to a delightful blend of comedy and magic just right for children. Terry Parrett proved to be very responsible and a friendly performer at our library."- Leslie Schotz, Children's Librarian, South Huntington Library, Huntington Station, NY

"I have received so many compliments on your behalf from the children, parents, and staff who saw the show. The tricks you performed were unique and amazing, and your rapport with the children was excellent."- Virginia Carroll, Children's Librarian, Smithtown Library, Kings Park, NY

"After the program was over, the children could still be found in the library trying to dazzle one another with their newly learned magic tricks. Many of the children have come to the library for magic shows, but learning the magic tricks provided them with a new challenge"- Andrea Meluskey, Head of Children's Services, Shelter Rock Library, Albertson, NY

"Thank you for the great balloon workshop… It was a wonderful program and the kids left here full of smiles and balloon creatures. It was nice for them to experience and learn something a little different."- Bonnie Markel, Head of Children's Services, Merrick Library, Merrick, NY
