"Travels with Pierre"

Alicia's performances of folklore and original stories and songs, along with her book- and traveling-loving Koala hand puppet, Pierre, enchant audiences at libraries,  schools, and at special events across New England and beyond.



    "Alicia Quintano actively engaged the children in my community and left them hungry for more.  Her insightful experience and sensitivity engaged the most reluctant listeners, provided opportunities for interaction, and stirred their imaginations.  They remained invigorated by the performance afterward, drawing raves from parents and kids alike." 

            --  N. Sheehan, Head of Youth Services, Lucius Beebe Memorial Library, Wakefield, MA

    "Just a note to thank you for a great performance. Your performance helped make our reading program celebration a real success. "  -- E. Roder, Reading Specialist, Stephentown Elementary

    "The children loved Pierre and all the goodies in his  bag.  You have a tremendous gift for telling funny stories in a magical way that enchants everyone in the audience."
