Bailey with an afterthought

Hi, it's me again, Bailey, the SPOT reporter from Perry. David and Daniel have only been gone two days, but I miss them already. I miss David's funny, enthusiastic stories, and Daniel's great music. My sister and I couldn't decide if we wanted a DVD or a CD, so we got both, and I'm glad we did. I can listen to David's stories, or watch them, whenever I want. I hope a lot of people did as I did, and bought The Frog Bride to remember David Gonzalez. And just possibly, they will run into them somewhere or another and want to see his next performance.

Bailey reports from the school on Monday

[from Bailey, Perry Spot Reporter]
Today at 9:30 in the Multi Purpose Room at Perry Elementary, David and Daniel did a performance for the third grade. I went, and got to miss one of my classes. He shouted and screamed as he told us a story about a young boy called Ben. My friends told me later that they could hear him shouting, "Give us a song!"

Daniel played more excellent music, and the third graders laughed a lot. Then he asked us about what super power we would like to have the most. Lots of people said flying, laser eyes, and one person said, "The power to eat as much pie as I want." It was really fun.

Later on that day, my mom, my sister, and I went to PACES, the after-school program for students. PACES stands for Perry's Academic and Cultural Enrichment Services. He had to do the performance twice, and I got to hear four different stories. Daniel tried to do a trick standing over his piano, but he fell. Everybody laughed. David told everybody they needed to go to the Tuesday night performance, and as a treat, they should pay for their parents. Everybody was thrilled at his performance, and I'm sure most everybody is going to go to the performance.

In a little while, adults only (too bad) will go to Casa de Oro for a chance to talk to David and ask him questions.

Monday report from Bailey in Perry

[from Bailey, Perry Spot Reporter]
Hi! I'm Bailey, and I'm the SPOT reporter for Perry. I just got home from the library where David Gonzalez did his second performance in Perry. (The first one I went to.) It was great fun. Daniel played excellent music at the beginning, then David told us an excellent story about how turtles get cracked shells. Then he told us another story that goes like this: Once there was a boy and a girl. Then they lived happily ever after. The End

He has funny expressions for how the characters would feel, and excellent voices. He made the little kids laugh, and even most of the adults laughed.

Bailey Report 2

I'm Bailey, the SPOT reporter for Perry. On April 9 I went to a SPOT planning meeting. Here are my notes:

They are discussing David Gonzalez's visit. He's coming at 10:55 on Sunday, April 21 and at 3:30 he will be at the Perry Public Library. On Monday I will go to the elementary school for a special performance for the third graders. At 5:00, he will be at PACES. He will also be a Casa de Oro at 7:00. What a busy day!

On Tuesday, there is going to be a big performance. It sounds like he is going to have a great time!

Spot Reporter Bailey in Perry

Hi, this is Bailey, the SPOT reporter for Perry. Tomorrow I meet David Gonzalez. He will be at the Perry Public Library, and I get to ask him questions there. It's like I get my own personal interview. I'm very nervous. My mom says with my t-shirt and press pass, I'll look official. I hope she's right!
