Subject: Re:  The Power of Words


Regarding the discussion that has been going on regarding the freedom of
speech, I just thought I might put my two-cents in.

Liz VonSeggen, who is Director of Product Development at One Way Street has
felt very strongly about the power words can have in every day life and how
we can show children that it is wise to choose your words carefully because
they can be hurtful to others.  In light of this belief, One Way Street
recently developed a puppet musical called "Outer Space... Inner Space" where
two kids unexpectedly travel to outer space and in the process learn how
harmful their words can be.

We have a great video of this puppet musical which was filmed in television
format (framed, not staged) and it has catchy songs and memorable characters
that kids love.  If anyone is interested in more information just call One
Way Street at 1-800-JOY-4KDS and anyone here would be happy to tell you more.

Hope nobody minds this note.
Juli Burroughs, Director of Publications, One Way Street
