Subject: Re: How to Make Money Performing in Schools


At the Detroit Puppeteers Guild's recent day of puppetry, three copies of
this book were available for sale--but not for long.  They were snatched up
in nothing flat.

I purchased my copy directly from the author (see address in previous
posting) and have read it cover to cover.

It is excellent and should be in the hands of anyone working school shows--or
hoping to do so.

The Puppetry Store carries copies in stock.

 book:
