"Before the end of the first song, children were up and dancing.  And they didn't stop dancing until the last note was played on his guitar!  What's impressive, is how instant that connection is that Dale makes with kids.  Thanks so much for a memorable event!"

-Andrew Jenrich, Children's Librarian, Taft Public Library, Mendon

"Dale, Bravo! Thanks for the wonderful performance today.  Your energy inspired not only the toddlers, but also the mums, to get up and dance on the lawn!  I can't think of a better way to spend a Summer morning.  We had a great time!"

-Katy, (Jack & Teddy's Mum), Pepperell

"Thank you for the wonderful performance you gave at the Plainville Public Library.  It was a very young crowd and you did a great job keeping them singing and dancing.  I was particularly impressed with the time and attention you gave the children during the 15 minutes before the program.  Your show was the perfect kick-off to our new babies and toddler program, Mother Goose On the Loose. "

-Judith Meixner, Children's Librarian, Plainville Public Library

"Dale, we loved having you at the library!  Both parents and kids thought you were great!  My four year old grandson (who never sits still for anything!) was mesmerized by your songs and music - I've never seen him sit still that long!  Thank you again!"

 

-Joanne Doherty, Children's Librarian, Bridgewater Public Library, MA

"What a show for a 'sold out,' overflow crowd. The smiling faces were on tots and grown ups alike. I loved the action you suggested to go with each song keeping them busy and engaged as well as listening. Good luck and thank you!"          

-Denise Wilson, Children's Librarian, Auburn Public Library

"Dale, Thank YOU for the performance and for letting the little ones enjoy music at our library once again!  See you in August!"

"The show you performed for us over April vacation week was a big hit! As it was a beautiful sunny day, I was nervous whether we would get a crowd, but they came, and the kids and parents alike had a blast. Your music was just right for the toddler-to-ten-or-so group, and it was great fun to watch the kids make up dances to go with the songs. You are a real professional and a pleasure to work with--we will definitely have you again, soon."

 

-Lynne Campbell, Children's Librarian, John Curtis Free Library, Hanover, MA

"Your CD, Just Say Hello! is delightful!  I thought the song 'We'll Go for a Swim' was particularly rhythmic - like Hap Palmer!!! - I could see myself doing that in a circle with children. I definitely think you should come to the Bridgton Library and do a performance !!! I hope this happens !! Have a good New Year and hope you keep making CD's for the children of the world! "

-Ellen Bollen, Former Children's Librarian, Boston & Brookline, (Resides in Bridgton, ME)
