Tom’s shows are delightful. Magic is a wonderful vehicle for instilling in students of all ages a love of poetry. As an observer, I have witnessed on children’s faces looks of awe and wonder and a delight in the poetic words Tom recites while escaping from a rope or making quarters appear out of nowhere. I highly recommend Tom’s performance for any level of students—teachers and kids alike have told me how much they loved watching him, and taking part in his poetic magic.
