"Dear Kim and Danny,
Thank you so much for the wonderfully engaging program—you make the audience want to clap, and sing and dance in the isles (and that's just the teachers!).

As I watched the children's faces I was reminded why we do the jobs we do—lucky for you, you can see this whenever you make a visit! It can never be said too much—You are FABULOUS!"

Thank you.

"Wow!  Wow!  Wow!  That's about all we can say as we reminisce about our visit from Danny and Kim.  It was truly a remarkable day and evening.  The teachers and kids are still chatting about your visit...your books are being checked out of the library regularly and when we discuss authors and illustrators, Danny and Kim are the first words out of their mouths...you're famous in Wildwood!

Kim, you were so relaxed with the children and I think they felt your warmth and kindness and genuine interest in them , as people.  You both are very special and relate so warmly and kindly with kids.  Danny, the kids love your music!!  I think you probably could have sung for hours. You can hear your music from the CD coming from some room on each floor each day. 

The evening program was a hoot.  The children told us, "We were at a concert and it was really, really, fun!  Danny and Kim, you are certainly this school's best friends.  We love your spirit, your wholesomeness, your humor, your flexibility, your warmth, your kindness, your books, your music but most of all, you!  Come back soon!"

"Your visit to Errick Road Elementary School was one of the highlights of our year! Even our kindergartners came away with an understanding of the effort and perseverance it takes to become a good writer or illustrator. They learned that everybody makes mistakes. That practice makes you better at whatever you are attempting to learn. The children were in awe of Kim's art and the techniques used to produce it. Danny's songs were lots of fun. The fourth graders who participated in the writing workshops gained a lot from having the chance to ask lots of questions. They enjoyed the writing activities, too. Danny and Kim are tops!"

"Kim and Danny have visited my Kindergarten class each year for the last five years. SImply put: they are so talented and so nice. Their presentation is interesting and informative. The children are so excited to see Kim's original artwork, they love their books, and Danny's music keeps everyone tapping their toes! My students always have a great time…and so do I! I can highly recommend them for school visits."

"We planned a day full of literature related activities for our students and their families. Our primary goals for the day were to celebrate the wonderful variety of children's literature and to inspire a love of reading that will last a lifetime. Danny Adlerman was invited as a guest author. He has written several wonderful picture books for children. His energetic reading and sing along performance was a great addition to our celebration. I am writing to recommend that you contact him when planning future events."

"What a wonderful experience it was for our fourth grade students to be introduced to the real world of writing and illustrating through your presentation and demonstration. I'm certain you could sense how receptive all of the students were. Having the chance to meet with you both after reading your books and admiring your illustrations was a real treat for us all. Thank you so much for your generosity and your willingness to share your time and expertise with us. We look forward to the arrival of your next book. Thank you again for the enriching day."

Praise for the music and art presentation featuring Danny, Kim, and Jim Babjak:

"I am extremely impressed by The Adlermans...the Borough of Hopewelll raves about the concert and book signing they did for the local library. Danny and Jim Babjak's music thrilled parents and children alike. In addition, Kim Adlerman is an incredibly talented artist who proves with her illustrations that children are precious. The books The Adlermans have written will provide reading entertainment that is sure to satisfy. The trio of Danny, Kim, and Jim is guaranteed to entertain as well as educate. Thank you Adlermans and Jim Babjak for providing a wonderful addition to the borough of Hopewell."
