Yes
Suggestions to artists for improvement:
None, but if I had to list something, the lower grades LOVED seeing his "monster" in the box but the old grades were not as interested in that portion of the performance.
Please include any additional comments you care to make.
This artist was beyond accommodating and was easy to work with. He spent the entire day at the school and did multiple assemblies, answered tons of questions, and was very involved with the students. The students responded to everything he had to say and were very into his story and books. I would totally recommend him to another school.
