TESTIMONIALS FROM KIDS

"When you read out loud you can do expression which makes it more fun. Also, reading out loud means everyone gets their own part, so it is also fun."     Mitch, 4th grade

"I liked it because it is a lot funner reading out loud than reading silently."     
    Robbie, 4th grade

"Reading in color makes it much easier to remember who you are."
   Allison, 3rd grade

"I liked it because we all sound great!"
   Jessica, 3rd grade

"It makes me learn from my reading."
   Matthew, 4th grade

TESTIMONIALS FROM PARENTS

"What a wonderful way for families to spend time together! Like 'game night,' StageBooks build unity and offer a unique approach to reading aloud that involves the whole family. Children's reading skills will be enhanced as they become active players in the stories."
    Tammy (parent)

"StageBooks are a great way to reinforce reading skills and enrich a child's learning. Reading together strengthens family unity while helping children gain a greater appreciation for literature. I would recommend Playbooks to anyone looking for a way to spend 'quality time' with their children. Bravo, Playbooks, Inc.!"
    Lori (parent)

"As a single father of two boys (ages 9 and 12), and a full time 5th grade teacher, I am challenged to make time for reading at home. Now that my boys are a bit older, they seem less interested in reading with me. StageBooks make reading with older children much more fun and exciting and offer a better alternative to video games and television."
    Randy (parent)

TESTIMONIALS FROM TEACHERS

“I thought my low, non-readers did a fantastic job! Also, a student who never smiles had a big smile on her face! I wanted to hear each group read. As I did, I noticed that each group was made up of high, medium and low readers. We had a role model in each group which was a great idea.”
   Christy, 3rd Grade Teacher

“I’m absolutely thrilled that such a variety of Playbooks are available to use in my 4th Grade classroom. These colorful books provide students an opportunity to improve their reading skills while working cooperatively in a small group. What a great way to engage students and help them learn!”
   Nancy, 4th Grade Teacher

“The mini costumes were fun and added excitement to the lesson! Reader’s Theater format increases the student’s self esteem.”
    Alicia, 3rd Grade Teacher

“Some students who are shy during regular reading time really showed their creativity during Reader’s Theater. All my students were engaged and motivated to read.”
   Martha, 3rd Grade Teacher

"The students thoroughly enjoyed the lessons. Teachers were very pleased with the results of the reading "performances" and how much fun students had reading the scripts."
   Silvia, Elementary School Principal
