The Magic Bookshelf is a 45 minute elementary school assembly show that is all about books, treasures that can be found in the library, and of course, reading. You will learn more about this exciting March is Reading month assembly show in a second, but first I have a confession.

I have a problem. I have a funny way of showing respect for books. I rarely go to the library. I don’t cherish books as fragile artifacts like many people. But I do love books and I can’t live without them. I use them, mark them, beat them up and suck them dry of every drop of knowledge. My books are filled with highlights, notations and dog-eared corners. I’d rather buy a book then borrow one. I told you. I have a problem.

But my problem is your solution. You’re searching for a reading month assembly show that gets kids excited and passionate about reading, right? The Magic Bookshelf is that show! Your students will catch my obsession because it’s contagious. Even though I have a funny way of showing it, I do love books! My first love as a child was… you guessed it… books. I asked for them for my birthday and for Christmas. They were full of secrets that very few people knew. They gave me special powers, literally. That’s because my favorite books were magic books!
“I’ve seen many of Doug’s shows but The Magic Bookshelf is my absolute favorite. It’s so well done, so motivational and 100% entertaining. This is a great, great show.”

– Dr. Kristie Weiss, Principal, Edison Elementary, Fraser, Michigan

I’ll promise you this: I can get your students to love books and develop a strong passion for reading too. When books and magic are combined students start to see the library in a whole new way. They learn that all books are filled with adventures, secrets and magic. Your students will discover that the secret to anything can be found in a book. Books make dreams come true.

Many students are surprised to learn that it’s very likely that their favorite movie started as a book. That’s the way Hollywood works. Movie producers read books and then turn the books into movies. In The Magic Bookshelf reading assembly, your students will giggle, cheer and beg to participate on stage as some of the world’s best children’s books are turned into amazing and funny magic tricks. Everyone knows that reading is magic, but when a child’s eyes light up when they find books that are perfect for them, something more than magic happens, they are set on a lifelong journey of exploration and knowledge.

During March this show tours through Michigan and Ohio elementary schools. It’s an author show with a big difference. It engages, captivates and thrills elementary school students while motivating them to explore new genres.

Don’t miss out on this show for March is Reading Month. It sells out yearly, so call today (248) 891-1900 or click the instant quote button and I’ll rush pricing information back to you immediately.

“We try to get an author to come speak to our school every year. The trouble is that sometimes they are very expensive and, to be honest, many just don’t know how to keep the attention of elementary students. Doug Scheer, however, is fantastic. This show had everyone mesmerized the entire time.”

– Heather Batko, Assistant Principal, Cheyenne Elementary, Macomb, Michigan

“I have used Doug Scheer Assembly shows for the past 29 years. Never missed a year. In my 40 years in education Scheer Assemblies are by far the the best. I would not think of using anyone else. His shows are fantastic and very professional. The students just love all of his shows.”

– Edward Skowneski, Mark Twain Elementary, Fraser, Michigan

This magical reading show sells out every year.

There are only 23 school days in March and that means only enough space for 46 schools. That sounds like a lot, but time slots are being reserved over a year in advance. So call today to schedule this show for the dates that are best for your school. Doug, (248) 891-1900 or click the instant quote button and I’ll rush more information to you immediately.

Kids can take home a copy of my book.

As a lover of books, I am also an author. I created the graphic novel Diversity Circus and, to this date, over 10,000 copies have been sold. As a money-saving option, my book can be made available to your students after the assembly show. Since that is an optional add-on offer, contact me today and I’ll give you all the details.

Let’s do this.

Make your assembly show schedule more memorable than ever before. Schedule The Magic Bookshelf reading show for your elementary school today.
