Kid's at Bradford School"Dear Princess Moxie,
Just a note of appreciation. Our class really enjoyed your puppet performance two weeks ago. It was obvious the children were very much engaged - the material was just right for this audience! My student teacher from Montclair State University said she was inspired by your talent! We had puppet material in the classroom, so we took it out and created our own fantasy show, following your example. Hopefully, you will come again. We'd love to have you back."

"Thank you for a princess story we'll never see made into a Barbie video! Your production of "Princess Moxie Rules!" was a great addition to the Livermore Public Library's summer reading program. I was looking for something more than the typical, traditional puppet show, and you delivered - with energy, humor, empowerment, and no hiding behind a screen! We would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a fun, entertaining family program. Thanks again!"
