Measurable Outcome(s)
Tomie dePaola's "The knight and the dragon" and "Superkids" as well as songs and mayhem. Kids love Brian. Even the big kids were really involved. Dinosaur storytime with stories, poems, dancing, participation, and a fossil triceratops horn. Energetic, engaging, and well received. Children are very engaged by the stories Brian and his assistants tell. There are so many laughs during these shows.
