Margaret Clauder

Margaret Clauder is a costumed storyteller for PK - 6th grade.  Her characters include classics like Mother Goose, Mother Nature, THE Bookworm, Masai Maggie (Safari clad teller), and many, many more.  Margaret prefers to perform a story from a well known children's book that the children can later check out from their school or public library.  Her goal is to encourage children to READ more, and she feels by telling stories the children can actually find and check out at their library she can accomplish this goal.  She also encourages children to seek out other titles by the authors she promotes.  In her tales she will use humor, puppets, props, and sometimes a little magic to pique children's interest and create excitement. 
 
Her background is in theater and public speaking.  She also is a former teacher so she knows kids!  Margaret also has had professional clown training and was selected the clown of the year for Texas in 2008 by the Texas Clown Association.  While she doesn't perform in clown makeup for school kids, you can tell she is a clown at heart by the amount of humor and comedy her shows contain.  Kids laugh as they learn with Margaret's programs!
