Dear Richard,
I just had to drop you a
quick line and tell you how much we enjoyed your show at the kids’ party today. Colin and Nathan
had a GREAT time, and so did all of the kids and grown-ups, too! You really do a wonderful job with your
presentation.
We are really fortunate
to have had you and all your friends visit us today. All of the parents were really impressed!
One person said it was the best party she had ever been to.
It is really mesmerizing
to watch you with all of the children paying rapt attention. It is miraculous to see an adult tell 36 kids ages seven and under to go wash their hands . . . and then they all race off to do it!
The Reptile Man is magic.
Thank you so much for coming.
You made our party a smashing success, and we will always remember it.
Sincerely,
Anne Morris
