Goin' Fiction An fun-filled adventure! Geared for children ages k4 through 4th grade! Fun, Entertaining and Educational – That sums up this program. This is a one-man variety show featuring magic, story-telling, ventriloquism, appropriate mood-setting music and tons of audience involvement. Get ready for plenty of ‘stories from the open sea.' Classic books, popular movies and a few fun tales that take place in a watery setting are brought together to bring a boat load of entertainment to your library. While the waves of fun will lure eveyone in, the reading message is cast loud and clear with the net result of inviting kids to get hooked on books. Here's a typical reaction when presented. Scott, Your performance at the library was entertaining and educational! We loved how you were able to combine magic and fun with the value of reading! The audience was so excited, and loved every minute of the program. And it was great that you were able to include so many children in your performance! We would love to have you back again!

Scott Oberman is an extraordinary performer and reading motivator! The performance includes such a wonderful variety of entertainment at just the right pace that captivated all audience ages and kept them wanting more. Scott's magic, stories, jokes and props were amusing and appropriate for all ages. The audience participation was so much fun and the children were very eager to participate and interact with Scott. As the Youth Services Librarian, I really appreciated the wonderful reading motivation incorporated throughout the performance and the correlating summer reading theme. Scott's entertainment more than met my expectations and the community's. Amanda Brueckner Youth Services Librarian Karl Junginger Memorial Library Waterloo, WI

Character Building Program BEE YOUR BEST! Designed for Kindergarten through 5th grade Character Building and Bees, that's an unlikely combination. But kids are fascinated by bees, and having great character is important. So...we've put them together into a great new program for children. Imagine an Educational Variety Show at Your School!

"I thought you did a great job, especially the way you incorporated "nuggets" of learning, while keeping them engaged in what you were doing"    --Karen Christianson, Lowell Public Library     Download the Poster (800K)

The program is 45 minutes of educational and inspirational entertainment incorporating Scott's unique blend of magic tricks, humor, storytelling, games, ventriloquism and just plain fun. All this is designed to capture the children's imaginations and get them ready to learn some ideas about building Character. We can learn a lot from the insect world. And quite a bit of their world and habits can be applied to ours. This program does that as it focuses on READING and CHARACTER development. Children are invited to get involved and learn the value of having great personal character. Along the way they will see magic, play games, talk to a bee, discover interesting facts about "beeing" their best and learn about some wonderful books. What Key Points Are Emphasized? To Be Your Best you need to understand and exhibit these great character traits: Caring Cooperation Fairness Respect Responsibility Trust Plus we'll look at some fun books about bees and talk about their social structure.

"There were MANY positive comments after the show. Kids told me they had a good time, and parents said they thought it was great. One mom, ... was laughing so hard after the show that she could hardly speak, but she finally was able to say that she and her children had enjoyed the show immensely."    Ann Piehl -- Whitefish Bay Library

Humor is a great tool for teaching. And that lesson is not lost in this show. Kids will laugh at the silly antics and be amazed by the wonderful magic. Helping with this, Jerry the bee (a fun-loving puppet) will buzz in and make his appearance. In the end, the children will: Learn some things about their library Know some interesting facts about bees Realize the importance of developing great character

Kids learn best when they're enjoying the message being presented to them. In this program, Scott uses his illusion and ventriloquism skills to provide a fun and amazing show for the children. However, solid bible-based messages are woven throughout the tapestry of the show as well. The end result is a program that illustrates the truths of the Bible in a way that captivates children.

Scott's mastery of illusion was evident, and he wowed our students with his wit, illusion skills and personality! Frankly put, our students LOVED him! He had a keen ability to weave Christian principles in his performance and kept the students glued throughout the entire production. As a 15 year administrator, I would rank Scott as one of the Best! People of all ages will enjoy the "gift of amazing talent" that he brings. You will NOT be disappointed! If you are searching for something fun, unique, and exciting for your students and from a biblical worldview to boot, then this is it! We have already asked Scott to return next year. Our students will, I'm certain, look at his production as a highlight of our chapels each year. -- Bruce Reagan    Country Christian School
