Andrew came to our public
library and did an outstanding job at keeping the
children both entertained and involved in his
experiments. They learned a lot about science and
loved the story that went along with it. The
children were on the edge of their seats waiting to see
what Andrew would do next to make the story unfold.
After Andrew left the kids even took out books on
science experiments. Thank you again! We'll
see you next year!

My son, John saw Piccirillo
Sciencetelling at our local library last summer.
From that moment, all he wanted for his 8th birthday
party was a Piccirillo Sciencetelling Party! We
booked Andrew from Piccirillo Sciencetelling for
December 2007 and could not have been happier!
Andrew and his show were outstanding!!! He kept 15
eight year olds engaged and amazed for the entire event!
Thank you Andrew for the best party we have ever had!!!

Andrew entertained us all at
our son's 9th birthday. He had everyone at the
edge of their seats. The kids desperately wanted
to be a volunteer and participate. A great time
was had by all - it was engaging, educational and
exciting. What more can you ask?

My son's 6th birthday party
was a HUGE hit, thanks to Piccirillo Sciencetelling. His
buddies talked about it for weeks, and the parents who
attended said, "Wow! A kid's party that was fun for us,
too!" My son already wants to know if we can have Andrew
back for next year's party.

This November (2007) was the
second time Andrew delivered a spectacular performance
at our library. As Andrew tells the story of "Doolittle"
a building set on a hilltop near his school, he
illustrates (through the use of dry ice experiments) how
matter can be changed into solids, liquids and gases.
All the while the children giggled and squealed with
delight as he covered them with fog and bubbles. I would
highly recommend Piccirillo Sciencetelling to any other
library or school.

Andrew was awesome. He was
enjoyed by the kids and the parents alike. He has a very
kind, nice way about him. He respects the kids and they
respect him back. Educational and fun.

The children thoroughly
enjoyed the "Potions" program. It set the mood for a
Halloween show without being scary. The children really
had their attention held throughout the whole program. I
honestly don't know who had more fun, the children or
the parents!

Experiencing Piccirillo
Sciencetelling reopens the doors to amazing happenings
that we may see everyday. The great thing about hearing
the stories is that they are different and extremely
interesting every time! It's such a fun and exciting way
for everyone to learn. Every Summer I stay at home with
my daughters and we have our own camp called ,"Mommy
Camp", and as part of our camp curriculum they both join
Trenton's Summer Reading Program in which at Summer's
end there is a great party where Piccirillo
Sciencetelling pays us a visit and we all get to have a
wonderful science experience.

We had Piccirillo
Sciencetelling for our daughter's birthday party. The
kids, as well as the adults, enjoyed his show. I would
recommend him to everyone. He is great at what he does!

The fun began the moment
Andrew arrived at our community pool. He has a
great sense of humor! He amused and entertained
the adults as much as the children. The
combination of storytelling and hands on science
experiments in the "Potions" program kept everyone
mesmerized. We can't wait to have him back!

Our young patrons thoroughly
enjoyed "The Legend of Lavender Lake." Their
interest was held throughout the entire program and they
were rewarded with an end to the story that totally
fascinated them. Excellent program done very
professionally. Highly recommended.

I first learned about
Piccirillo Sciencetelling at a local community outing
called "Swedesboro Day". I watched their show that day
and I was amazed at the amount of fun and interaction
Andrew had with the audience. I thought to myself, my
summer camp would love one of their shows. We booked
Piccirillo's Dragons & Dreams Program this summer and
the children loved it. Their favorite experiments were
the ones involving Dry ice. Thank you for a great
show and we will definitely book a future show with your
company.

Our Piccirillo Sciencetelling
experiences have been WOW! The kids (and parents) can hardly
wait 'til Andrew comes back - everyone is thoroughly entertained and
thank goodness he keeps coming up with
more stories.
Reports have it that the laughter of the crowd can be heard in the
parking lot!

Your
Dry Ice Station added
immeasurably to our science fair this year in Nutley. For the
entire four hours you were there, every seat was filled. To
quote a member of our committee, your demonstration was "unique,
engaging and very energetic." In fact, of all the exhibits and
performers we booked for the fair -- and there were quite a few --
the dry ice station received the most positive feedback, and many
children sat through two shows. Thanks so much.
--Leslie Garisto Pfaff, Nutley Academic

AWESOME! The children loved every
second of it!
"Dragons and Dreams" is a really great story, with great visuals
and experiments for all to enjoy. I would definitely recommend
Piccirillo Sciencetelling to others. It is a great way to
learn and have fun all at the same time.

Andrew Piccirillo is a great entertainer
for children of all ages. We had Andrew at our Vauxhall Branch
Library for this year's summer reading program. He did the
Jungle of Jersey. We
had him back again for a Halloween Program at which time he did
Sundown on Sycamore
Street. On both occasions, the children and the adults had so
much fun. I know several parent's took his information with the
intention of booking him for upcoming
birthday parties. I know I
will definitely have Andrew back again.

Saw this program at our local library.
It was fantastic. I never saw so much excitement from the kids. They
learned a lot and had a great time. Mr. Piccirillo seemed to enjoy
working with the kids and keeping them engaged.

Piccirillo Sciencetelling conducted the

presentation for a diverse group. Our audience was captivated,
including the adults. The children were willing participants and not
one was left out.

I think I might have enjoyed this
program (The Jungle of

Wow! What an
awesome
experience. Andrew captured the interests and imaginations
of 18 nine year old boys with his exciting
"Planet of the Others"
story. Fire! Lasers!
Explosions!
Slime! AND my house stayed CLEAN!
A perfect party! I
am going to
book him for our school!
--Laurie Restieri, Franklin Lakes, NJ |

Andrew
Piccirillo has entertained for us three times. Once at a
science fair, and twice
at Harry Potter parties, where he
gave a sciencetelling show.
He was exciting
and energetic as
well as informative. I really think the kids learned something while
having a great time. I plan on having him come to the library every
year. Thanks Andrew.

If you're thinking Andrew Piccirillo's
advertising is too good to be true, think again. He delivers even
more than promised when he bursts onto the stage and launches into
an original tale, the theme of which is your
library's summer reading
theme. During the story many children (and even some adults) get
a chance to assist him in one of his many F.U.N. (funny,
unbelievable,
nutty)
experiments that they will probably never forget. I was born without
the "science gene," and even I learned a LOT. I was so impressed
with Andrew's performance
that while he was still in the building, I
e-mailed other
children's librarians
and encouraged them to
hire him!

This June, Andrew of Piccirillo
Sciencetelling helped us open our
Summer Reading Program
at the Spotswood Public Library. He
dazzled a
group of about 60 children and adults as he told the story of
"The Jungle of Jersey"
using interesting as well as
exciting
science experiments. The children ranged in age from 18 months
to 15 years old and all enjoyed the program.
I would highly recommend
Sciencetelling for
school and library
programs and children's
parties. Andrew was well organized and extremely personable with
the children.

What a
great birthday party!
Andrew of Piccirillo Sciencetelling was professional and easy to
work with right from the start. We had 25 boys between the ages of 6
and 9 and Andrew did an amazing job keeping their interest and
teaching them about science. He has a talent for storytelling and
entertaining this age group. We are completely happy with the entire
experience!

You came
to put on a science show
for us last week. We thought it was fun. We loved it when you made
fog and we felt so happy when Andrew made bubbles. Our
favorite part was when the quarter shook. That was very exciting. It
was amazing to see dry
ice. We learned never to touch dry ice without gloves.
Where did Andrew
get that silly rainbow shirt?

Andrew put on a great
program for my son's 9th
birthday party - he amazed
13 9 year olds, holding their attention for over an hour, AND he
taught them something, which certainly impressed me! We are now
looking forward to our next
family birthday party,
which will include more
Sciencetelling!

Andrew hit it out of the ballpark! We were lucky enough to
have Andrew present "Sundown

STILL receiving thank you's from our guests! Andrew's
personality shines and his enthusiasm for science is contagious!
Thank you for making our party an event to remember!

To quote
my children, "AWESOME!" We had a WONDERFUL time seeing and
participating in the Einstein program at the Monroe Library. I
can't say enough about it! The presentation was high energy,
entertaining and educational. Andrew grabbed my children's
attention and kept it for the entire
program. (No small feat!)
Learning and laughing at the same time. Now that's the way to go!
My kids have already asked when we can see another show! Looks like
we're Piccirillo groupies!

Andrew
Piccirillo is FANTASTIC! His
show is both entertaining and
educational. Mr. Piccirillo relates well to the children with
a high-energy show, that keeps the children laughing and learning at
the same time. He gives the children plenty of opportunity to
participate. He does some really wild stuff with dry ice, but
always makes sure to keep safety in mind. The children at the
Little Falls Public Library LOVED him!

Andrew Piccirillo's
Sciencetelling was an absolutely
great program for kids
(and adults). Part scientist, part storyteller (and part
comedian), Andrew had our kids laughing and learning between dry
ice, buckets of fog and bottle explosions. A great time was
had by all. Highly recommended for
libraries and
schools.

We
couldn't have asked for a better closing to our Summer Reading Club
than Piccirillo Sciencetelling's "Dragons
& Dreams" demonstration. Andrew had amazing energy and a great
rapport with the kids. The science experiments were so cool. Parents
came to me during the program
to say how much they and their children were enjoying it. I highly
recommend Piccirillo Sciencetelling to
libraries looking for
fun educational programs. We can't wait to have a return engagement!

We
recently hosted a show by Piccirillo Sciencetelling and could not
have been happier. Andrew is kind, energetic, great with the kids
AND the parents, and the show was a great combo of educational and
visual fun. We even had quite a few children check out the science
books after the show! What more could you ask for than an
entertainer who is actually influential? Highly recommended.

Piccirillo Sciencetelling
came to our house and did a science party for our 3 daughters'
birthday party. There were 40 children at the party ranging in age
from 1-13 and all the children were entertained and simply loved the
science show. Best of all they learned something too. Andrew's
enthusiasm for science shows as he goes through the story and
performs the experiments. He was able to keep a lot of kids
interested and at the edge of their seats. He was so good the
children and parents are still talking about it and several people
are planning to have him come to their parties as well. We can't
wait to see the science story again. Thanks for a great party!

POTIONS was so much

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Piccirillo Sciencetelling to other
libraries and
schools in the area.
The mastermind behind this company-- Andrew Piccirillo himself--
provided the children (and
parents, too!) of our community with a truly entertaining and
educational experience. Never before has science been so much fun!
The audience was beyond delighted by Mr. Piccirillo's charisma and
wit, and no doubt in awe of his wide store of scientific knowledge.
The laughter in itself was enough to please this librarian, but the
newly roused curiosity and wisdom I witnessed each child leaving
with was the extremely rewarding part. Neither myself nor my patrons
can wait until the next Piccirillo Sciencetelling
demo we have
scheduled --
Blazing New Trails.
Thanks again for a great show!!!

Piccirillo Sciencetelling came to Milltown last Monday. It was Da
Bomb. The program is great for all ages. I know this because my
daughter Minnow and I attended the Milltown "Potions"
show, and we were just so happy! Andrew is very animated and funny
and had great chemistry with all attendees. The grown-ups loved him,
and the kids (from 3 yrs. to 8th grade) were beside themselves with
wild enthusiasm! Andrew knows science, and he knows kids. We were so
pleased with the program
that we asked Piccirillo Sciencetelling to
come back in July for our summer reading extravaganza. I should add
that we had already planned enough programs, but Andrew was so
impressive....In fact, he left us wanting more...a longer
show...more dry ice...more explosions! We are so excited about
Piccirillo's "Wet 'n Wild"
which we scheduled as our kick-off program for summer reading. A big
bang before the 4th!!!!:)

Piccirillo Sciencetelling totally captivated about 40 children (aged 5
-9) plus some mothers and teachers with a dazzling "Potions
Demonstration" at the Old Bridge Public Library. Storytelling
plus dry ice experiments proved to be a winning combination. Mr.
Piccirillo's brightly colored tie-dyed lab coat added to the fun. I
understand he performs at
birthday parties. Kids would love this!
Schools should also
consider contacting him as his program is educational as well as
entertaining.
