| It was a great performance by Mr. James Pattinelli. Children were fully engaged with the narrative and were excited to share their experience with their parents at the pick up time. We would like to have same kind of events scheduled in the future too. |
| James Pettinelli came to our school to read his Zagaboo books to our children. The kids love the Zagaboo Stories and anxiously purchased his books as they were leaving. We will anxiously await his next visit. |
| James Pettinelli did an excellent presentation of his story of "Maddie Swims Troll-Style." The children enjoy him coming and are eager to participate when asked. We are anxious for his new book to come out. I have one student who would love to illustrate for Mr. Pettinelli in the future. Sharon Bryan (KinderCare Monticlair) |
| Zagaboo Stories has come to our Center twice to share the Zagaboo series with our students and they have loved both experiences! We're excited to hear there is another book being published soon and will invite them back to share that one as well, for sure! The experience is so much more than just reading the story-there are songs and dances, special effects sounds, and take homes for the kids! A great experience all around, we highly recommend it! |
| great show!!! the kids and parents loved it :) |
| James Petinelli put on an amazing show at our school this week reading his Zagaboo story. The children loved his showmanship, songs, and book, and are still talking about it days later. We can't wait until he comes back this summer. I bought the book for my grandson - he read it with my daughter this evening - and can't stop talking about Zagaboo! Cathy, Assistant Director |
| Mr. James Pettinelli visited our center last week and it was fun to have him. He was able to keep our Pre kindergarten, kindergarten and School age children totally absorbed in his performance. There was a lot of interaction between the author and the children anmd children enjoyed his visit. They still remember the song the learned from him. We are looking forward to his summer performance. |
| The children loved him. They were so excited he could barely get a word in to tell him about himself and his books. They loved the story and was especially excited to see that he brought some books and there very own Zagaboo to purchase! They are still talking about their experience today and can't wait for him to come back in the summer. |
| The children, families, and staff really enjoyed the visit from James Pettinelli. He made the presentation very interactive with the reading, guitar playing, and dancing. Mr. Pettinelli noticed two students with wonderful drawings of Zagaboo, and praised them for their efforts. We already have Mr. Pettinelli scheduled for our summer camp, and look forward to hearing the next of the Zagaboo stories. |
| We had the Zagaboo story and shows multiple times and the kids really loved them. James is very nice and entertaining and the kids love to listen to his educational and fun stories as well as singing and dancing during his shows. Would definitely recommend him for kids' shows and lectures. |
| The children at my center remembered Zagaboo from last year. They were very excited for Friday's reading. Mr. Pettinelli did an exceptional job... very engaging and energetic. His performance was awesome. Zagaboo is a great story.. the children are already looking forward for the third book! |
| What an amazing show! The kids truly enjoyed the reading and especially the songs at the end!! Can't wait to have Zagaboo back at our school! -Yousef |
