Mr. E.'s Reading Is So Delicious!
Children and adults were entranced by the delightful and side-splitting hilarity of the one-and-only Mr. E during his show, Reading is So Delicious with Mr. E., tonight at the library.
Through the use of magic and puppetry, Mr. E. held the attention of even our youngest patrons by using his masterful storytelling ability and creative props, such as a colorful goldfish scarf.
Mr. E.'s show was very interactive and allowed the children to become part of the madcap action! I especially enjoyed the idea of entwining popular children's literature into his show.
As you will see in the photos below Mr. E.'s show definitely proves that Reading is So Delicious!
The Youth Services Department would also like to thank the Friends of the Library for helping make this program possible.
