"Dear Margaret,
Your presentation at the Fairmont Branch of the Pasadena Library was outstanding. You are so talented to throw in a little ventriloquism and magic!
I would love to see you again this summer. Would you please check your calendar to see if you can fit us in to your busy schedule?
We would have a wide range of ages during the summer, from preschool through upper elementary.
Thank you for a maaahhhvelous show!"
