I have heard nothing but raves from every branch you’ve visited.  Even one of our more discriminating libraries was absolutely enchanted.  – Laurie Willhalm, Children’s Outreach & Program Librarian, Oakland Public Library System

We were so delighted to have you perform at our PTA Father/Son and Mother/Daughter celebrations.  We have been overwhelmed with the response from the students and parents who attended the events.  Your performances were exactly what we had hoped for.  Thank you for your willingness to work with such large audiences with a wide range of ages.  We thank you for your exceptional act, your promptness and professionalism, and the pleasure we had working with Linda on the details to meet our PTA's . ​
