If you've never settled for the ordinary,

"Whatever you do, or dream
you can, begin it, boldness has genius and power
and magic in it."
Goethe
Dear
Youth Librarian,
I’m
looking for one outstanding library in each
state that believes in the power of big
dreams and would like to be included in a very rare and unusual
opportunity. It's a dream that is big,
bold, powerful and magical and could
very likely put your library in the local, state or national
spotlight.
It’s called The “Dream Big, Spring
into Summer Reading Road Trip.”
My
dream is to promote library services, and the value of reading,
on a national scale with my “Big Smiles, Big Laughs,
Dream Big Magic Show.” My plan is to visit 48
Libraries in 48 States and do it
all in just 48 Days!
I'm inviting you to be a part of this dream.
This
amazing adventure begins in Michigan, on April 9th, and follows
a route which will take me through 48 states and then back
into Michigan for an entire season of summer reading magic
and fun in libraries closer to home.
There
are two ways in which you may participate in this national
tour. You may host this family-friendly
magic show in your own library, or you may wish to sponsor
it in an area school or schools in your community
as a unique way of promoting and marketing your upcoming summer
reading program. This show and the 48-state tour ties
in beautifully with the national library summer reading theme,
“Dream Big - Read.”
Traveling
through 48 states in 48 days requires meticulous planning
and efficiency. For your library to be included, you
must be willing to host or sponsor the show on the specific
day in which I will be visiting your state. You can
find that information by viewing the “States and Dates”
chart further down the page. While your available date may
not be your first choice, the benefits from hosting
this program will make it all very worthwhile.
What’s
in it for you…
-
Hosting this program sets you apart from every other
library in your state. You’ll be a part of
something big, bold and imaginative that’s never been
done before.
-
Your
readers will love this show, which has received countless
outstanding reviews from over 13,500 performances
at libraries, schools and family events nationwide.
-
Due to the unique nature of this tour, chances are excellent
that your library may enjoy time in the spotlight
from local, state and national media.
-
What
better way to promote the “Dream Big” theme
to your readers, than to actually be a part
of this very Big Dream that spans an entire country!
Here's
what you can expect...
"Continuous
laughter...amazing magic...terrific audience interaction...and
plenty of references to the benefits of books and reading...a
wholesome show that charms all ages!"
These are typical reports from hundreds of delighted libraries
that book A2 Magic shows and workshops year after year.
Audience
response at every library has been wonderful, and the reviews
have all been outstanding! Over
99% of all returned evaluations have had "well pleased,"
top-ranked ratings. Most
say the show was among their very best ever. A great
many report record attendance
(342 at the Dow Memorial Library in Midland, MI and 494 at
the Willard Library in Battle Creek, MI), and there is always
a huge surge of magic books checked out after each performance.
The
"Big Smiles, Big Laughs, Dream Big Magic Show"
is a solid 45 minutes of high caliber, baffling magic and
non-stop, family-friendly fun, and it's guaranteed! Be
the one library in your state to host or sponsor
a performance of this amazing program in your library or area
school, and I'll guarantee that you and your readers
will be delighted...or your show is FREE! That's
how confident I am that you will find this program to be one
of the absolute best values available to libraries and schools
today!
You'll
enjoy these additional benefits as well...
When
you book the "Big Smiles, Big Laughs, Dream Big
Magic Show," you'll not only get a wonderful
show that your readers will love, you'll get this additional
help from me to ensure the success of your program:
Don't
miss this high-energy program of unforgettable magic, loads
of laughter, miles of smiles and a world of wonderful reading
routines.
Remember, I will only be in your state for one day.
Be the One! Put your library on the
map to astonishment, laughter and big dreams realized!
The "Big Smiles,
Big Laughs, Dream Big Magic Show" will
entertain your readers and inspire them to live their dreams
as well.
Catch
the dream! Be a part of this once-in-a-lifetime magical
adventure. Book the program your readers will
remember. But don't delay...this program is destined to
sell out quickly, and your date may disappear soon!
"This
is an awesome project, Jeff! We'd love to be the featured
library in our state.
The bottom line is... what is the cost, and when will you
be in our state?"
I
absolutely love to promote libraries. I actually got started
in magic from a book I discovered in section 793 of my own
hometown library, and I've been living my dream ever since.
In my 45 years as an entertainer, I can't imagine a more enjoyable
venue than a family audience in a library setting! The passion
to achieve this goal far outweighs any desire to pad my bank
account. So, I've priced this program to be within
the reach of any library that would like to "stand out"
and be a part of this rare and inspiring national adventure.

"Jeff
is the best! The Ann Arbor District Library hires him quite
often, and he plays to a full house every time. (179 people
in a small branch on a Saturday afternoon.) The magic tricks
are fantastic, but the best part is Jeff's interaction with
the kids...Highly recommended for schools and libraries."
Ieva Bates, Branch Manager
Northeast Branch, Ann Arbor District Library
"What
great fun that was to have you at all (8) of our branches!
Thank you again for sharing your joy with us. We'll definitely
want you back again!"
Sarah McCarville. Youth Services
Coordinator
Grand Rapids Public Library
"Jeff
was a delightful performer. He held the attention of all
participants. A show for the entire family filled with humor
and great skill. We especially enjoyed and appreciated his
link to books, reading and library service."
Carla Sharp, Youth Services
Brighton District Library
"Thanks
for two great shows! It takes a special person to captivate
a large audience with an age range from toddler to adult,
and you did it twice in one day. Final comments from both
kids and parents were all positive and ranged from "Great
show!" to "This was the best magician you've ever
had."...We hired you only after hearing good things
from other librarians in our area. You can be sure we will
be giving you high ratings during our next Children's Librarians
Meeting."
Sue Mihalic, Youth Services Librarian
St. Clair Shores Public Library
"Jeff
Wawrzaszek drew our biggest crowd this fall, and they weren't
disappointed! He was a great mix of humor and magic, and
our audience was captivated. He kept the attention of our
youngest preschoolers, and he didn't lose the older ones.
Very few entertainers work well for all ages, but Jeff really
did."
Laura Wright, Youth Librarian
Portage District library
"Great
show and a terrific value. Kept the kids of all ages enraptured
and wanting more!"
Todd Krueger, Director, Lyon Twp.
Public Library
"Thoroughly enjoyed your show.
It was nice to have a magic show that was all magic and
no fluff in between. See you next summer for sure!"
Barb
Bussema, Children's Librarian
Parchment Community Library
"Thank
you - Couldn't have asked for anything more - on time, prepared,
entertaining - professional in every way! We especially
enjoyed the audience participation. I've heard nothing but
positive remarks from kids, staff and parents. Congratulations.
You were a hit at the Fischer!"
Patricia Jahr, Librarian
Fred C. Fischer Public Library, Belleville
"The
show was excellent! It was wonderful to include reading
and the summer reading program in the show. Some of the
children's comments: How did he do that? Do you have any
Magic books? I wish it didn't have to end. It was great
to see a nice group for an audience in this small community.
Because Jeff did such a great show, I'm sure they will return
for other programs here. Thank you!"
Joyce Meyers, Branch Manager
M anistee County Library, Wellston Branch
