Your stories are suspenseful, mind boggling, mysterious, thoughtful, exciting, funny, mystical, happy, and off the wall!
Fourth Grade Reviewers Bank Street School, New York City, NY
I really liked the stories that you told us. You are probably the only person that I have met who really likes their job. You tell the stories with a lot of feeling and it makes me feel like I¹m watching a movie or reading a book.
David A., Eighth Grade, Bank Street School, NY
You have the best stories! We can¹t wait to see you again.
Third Grade Reviewers, Spence School, New York, NY
Beatrice¹s stories are lively, witty, and chock full of fun!
Dixie Sheridan, Director, Powerhouse Theatre Vassar College, Poughkeepsie, NY
Our audiences flock to the theater when you tell stories. Your repertoire of multicultural nature stories fits in so nicely with the kinds of events we do here. You really know how to captivate children. I always look forward to working with you.
Nina Sasevitch, Public Program Coordinator Bay Area Discovery Museum, Sausalito, CA
Beatrice¹s spirited myths and stories give children a true understanding of Nature¹s sacredness in all nations and fosters their own ³green wisdom². Bob Hyland, Vice President, Public Programs Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Brooklyn, NY
Beatrice Bowles is more than just a storyteller. She doesn¹t just tell a story. She creates stories and gets you involved in them. You are in and out of the stories. You experience parts of you either that you have forgotten or never knew you had. Healings occur and lessons are learned in a safe container of story. As a seminar organizer/coordinator, I found her to be a very valuable resource person. I recommend her highly.

You absolutely enchanted the children by the words and the music.
