YES! The Purple Porpoise is ready and available to visit YOUR school!  The life-size, 7-foot tall Purple Porpoise will entertain your students along with his uh, um, ...oh yeah, ...his author and illustrator, Jim Peluso!  After Jim reads from a large-size copy of the book, the Porpoise and Jim perform a skit to the delight of the children!  Then, Jim grabs his guitar and they sing their hilarious new song, "Are You Absolutely Certain That You're Positive?"  while the Porpoise performs his graceful dance routine!  Coloring pages of the Porpoise are handed out and a GREAT time is had by all!  Each student will get a chance to meet & greet the Porpoise (and learn his secret "Porpoise handshake").  Jim then will personally sign each copy of the books that are purchased, dedicated to the student purchasing.  A full 10% discount is offered on the books for school events as well! 

For more information and to set up an event, please contact Marie Coffer at (516) 477-2787 or email us at angelcrest@optonline.net.  We look forward to hearing from you and hope to see you soon!   
 

Some Comments from Professionals, Teachers & Students alike:

Just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed the book.  As a former teacher and Dr. Seuss fan, it was wonderful to read a rhyming book with great vocabulary and moral themes!
--Mildred Boyce, Retired Schoolteacher, Nicholasville, KY

I gave this book as a gift to my nephews who absolutely loved it!  The book is a fun way to present such thoughtful and important topics to our kids; through the unique and colorful character of the Porpoise!  The narrative is ideal for children with witty, clever rhyming and use of the letter 'P'.  I haven't seen any book like this, with a meaningful, strong message through such an entertaining read.
--Maria Ines Ferre, National/ International News Correspondent, New York, NY

This children's book is so many things wrapped in one.  Not only the rhyming that tells the story but the lesson of humility and courage it teaches youngsters.  My husband and I were so impressed we purchased 5 additional books for our nieces and nephews!  Looking forward to other stories to follow.

It was so much fun with the Porpoise...it was fabulous!  I loved the "show".  You are cool for doing this.  I thought that all we would do was read, draw and then leave.  I was SO off!  This was the best day of the school year so far!  It was so much fun!
--Amanda, Clara H. Carlson School, Elmont, NY 

I liked your performance.  It was outstanding and amazing!  You guys were SO funny!  Ha, ha, ha!  The book you made was an excellent story.  I was laughing when the boy and the Purple Porpoise got hung up by the king!
--Michele, Clara H. Carlson School, Elmont, NY

I thought the Purple Porpoise was funny and I loved the way he danced!  I also liked that I was able to take a picture with the Purple Porpoise!
--Joseph, School of Language & Communication, Glen Cove, NY

I love art & writing.  You inspired me to be the best that I can be!
--Elizabeth, Clara H. Carlson School, Elmont, NY

Thank you for coming to our school and reading.  My favorite part is when the boy found out that the porpoise is not that smart!
--Timmy, School of Language & Communication, Glen Cove, NY
