Paddy's programs include COLOR MY WORLD, Storyacting for preschoolers through fourth grade. Paddy uses recognizable books for the basis of this highly energetic and engaging presentation that involves many of the students to share the stage with her. Audience members as well share in the telling of the stories using sound effects and a variety of responses. Everyone gets involved!
KALEIDOSCOPE - Multicultural tales from many different lands. The stories give insight into the culture and beliefs of the people.
PEACE PIPE TALES - Native American legends and tales that teach us about their values.
CHILLERS - Tales of intrigue and mystery. Tales to make us think about the possibilities of the unknown.
LETTERS FROM THE OREGON TRAIL - An original story of one family's adventure westward in 1850. Through a series of letters sent back home, one woman recounts the trials and tribulations that affected the women and children making the trek.
MEET EMILY DICKINSON, THE BELLE OF AMHERST- The story of one of America's most prolific poets. The story is beautifully weaved with Emily's life experiences from early childhood to her death, along with many of her most famous poems.
MEET HARRIET BEECHER STOWE. This one-woman show recounts Harriet's inspirations behind "Uncle Tom's Cabin" as well as little known facts about Harriet's life from childhood to adulthood.

Hear what others have to say:

"After experiencing Paddy's program, the children seem to remember the stories clearer and can access their knowledge of sequence of the story better. We would not hesitate to invite her to our literacy nights year after year as we have for 7 years now." Principal, Hawthorn School

"I wish every assembly could be at such a high quality as this one."

"SUPER! WOW!" St. Matthew's Lutheran School
