"What
an enchanting morning you gave us at Mariemont Elementary last week! Your
stories were delightful as well as thought-provoking. I had students and
teachers stopping me in the hallway to let me know how wonderful you were..."

"LuAnn
Adams has presented stories for children at our school for several years,
and as always, she fascinates and charms her audience. We have had other
storytellers through the years, but it is LuAnn who the children thoroughly
enjoy and specifically request to come back... She has the highest recommendations
from me, the staff, and most importantly, the children."

"Most
recently the Cincinnati Playhouse hired LuAnn to tour her collection of
stories... I watched as hundreds of children sat spellbound, inhaling
LuAnn's stories that were entertaining, exciting, inspiring and relevant.
It is this latter quality that pleased me most about LuAnn's work. No
story was a "throw away" tale. Whether a story about bravery,
self-esteem, friendship, or survival, each one had a resonance to the
children themselves. They all held some kind of insight into the children's
own lives and what they might be doing on their own individual "Adventure
of Life." To make the world, characters and circumstances of a story
come so vibrantly alive through the art of storytelling, and have them
speak to a child's own experience, is a marvelous talent that LuAnn magically
manifests in her performances."

"Our
diverse audiences were thrilled with LuAnn's engaging varied storytelling.
In fact, the children would not let her stop -- asking for yet another
story. Her warmness, enthusiasm and genuine interest in the children were
evident in all of her performances. Each program felt fresh and each encouraged
the listeners to find more stories in the books available to them at the
Library. "

"Once
again, Holiday Lights has come and gone and we have had nothing but raves
from employees and guests alike about your performances. You certainly
have a magic about you that captures both young and old. I always get
a kick out of seeing the parents as well as their children hanging on
every word and singing along. On behalf of the Wildlife Conservation Society,
I would like to thank you for helping to make our event the success that
it is... I would personally recommend your storytelling to any venue."
