David Moreland’s
‘Make A Splash: READ’ Show

(And be sure to read about the terrific discounts if you team up with a nearby library!)

Dear Children’s Librarian:

‘Can Cap’n Dave find the Library Treasure Chest?’

That’s the question I explore in my fun, motivational ‘Make A Splash: READ’ show. It’s a high-energy show that utilizes comedy, magic, balloons, storytelling, puppetry and lots of audience participation to teach kids all the magic of the library, and the power of reading.

You’ll have your biggest crowds of the summer: I provide you with professionally-designed, easily-downloaded publicity materials, and you can advertise that each child who attends will get a FREE BOOKMARK and a FREE MAGIC TRICK!

My ‘Make A Splash: READ’ Show is unlike anything you’ve ever seen. It’s really a highly-entertaining infomercial about your library: your services, your upcoming programs, and your wonderful children’s collection.

The investment for a single performance is $400 plus travel BUT
Here’s how you can

SAVE OVER $100

If you team up with another nearby library to share a date:

-the cost for each library drops to just $295, and
-there is no travel charge.

AND THERE’S MORE!

If you schedule your performance by April 15th, each library receives THREE FREE COPIES of my NEW BOOK Moreland the Magician’s Big Book of Magic Tricks (& Other Goofy Stuff) That You Can Do! (a $30 value). You can use them as the award in a reading contest, or as a raffle prize, or what-have-you.

So, to repeat, if you and a nearby library book two shows on the same day …

Each library SAVES OVER $100

Each library pays no travel fee (which, depending on your location, could save you $100+)

…and if you book your shows by April 15th…

Each library gets THREE COPIES OF MY NEW BOOK (A $30 value)

That’s at least $130 of bonuses and discounts for each library!

The show is geared toward pre-school and elementary-aged children –- the ages you are most interested in reaching with your ‘Make A Splash: READ’ activities — but adults often say they enjoy my shows as much as the children!

‘Will a magic show really bring in enough people to justify its cost?’

Yes! Read the effusive recommendations from other librarians below. Many reported their biggest turnout ever with my magic show.

‘Does it require a lot of work to promote the show?’

No, I make it simple. You can go to my website and download press releases, high-resolution publicity photos and logos, and templates for posters and flyers. It couldn’t be easier.

100% Money Back Guarantee

If you’re not completely satisfied, just tell me and you won’t owe me a penny.

Out of the hundreds of programs I’ve done, no one has ever, ever requested their money back. But I give you the guarantee so that you can feel completely confident with your decision to go ahead with this.

When you decide to book the “Make A Splash: READ” program, I’ll e-mail you a confirmation, an invoice, and a copy of my Certificate of Insurance. I‘ll also give you a call a few days before the show so you can rest assured I’ll be there and be on time.

HERE’S HOW TO BOOK A SHOW…

Simply pick up the phone and call me at 607-256-3500 or toll free at 866-327-6300. I can answer any questions you have and we can check on available dates.

If you want an educational and entertaining summer reading show that you and your patrons will love, call me today.

Sincerely,

MORELAND the MAGICIAN
114 Auburn Street, Ithaca New York 14850

P.S. Remember, you and your partner library must book your dates by April 15th to get the THREE FREE COPIES of my new book, so call 607-256-3500 or 866-327-6300 today!

*About the travel fee: For a single performance I charge a travel fee of 25 cents per mile round trip from Ithaca. The charge for a show 50 miles away would be $25, the charge for a show 100 miles away would be $50, and so on. But if you team up with another nearby library and book two shows on the same day, you pay no travel fee!

P.P.S. Here’s what other librarians have to say about my shows:

By far…the most enjoyable children’s program…in the 8 years that I’ve been director. We had almost 2 times the number of attendees as with any program we’ve had! Kids and even some parents stopped me on the street to comment on how much they enjoyed the program – all of it! The info about the importance of getting a library card and the ‘magic’ found in reading was great! I have already been ‘singing your praises’ at meetings with other libraries!
Joan Tavernier, Director
Wide Awake Club Library

Absolutely wonderful! One of the top performances we have had in several years. We had a great turnout — about double the…usual for this type of event. The adults enjoyed it as much as the children. I was especially pleased with your efforts to personalize the performance by frequent use of the library name, staff names, and (by) promoting reading.
Laurie Newell
Library Manager
Bloomfield Public Library

One of the top 5 programs we have ever had. (There was) a lot of laughter and the children loved the audience-participation. It was the largest audience in the last five years. Parents wanted to know if we could schedule you for next year!
