Tom, the Creature Teacher, visited my library summer reading program and my patrons (aged 0-99) and I couldn’t have been happier!  Tom’s teaching experience and love for kids and his reptile and amphibian creatures shines throughout his program and keeps the whole audience in awe and wonder for the entire hour.  We all got to see the critters up close and personal (if we wanted to) and even the most animal loving among us learned a great deal about his wide variety of creature friends. I don’t know if I’ve ever had a program where so many people thanked me and Tom for the opportunity and the show!  I highly recommend The Creature Teacher for your next event!

Tom Pederson (The Creature Teacher) provided our elementary students and staff with an amazing presentation.  He had the students engaged instantly.  Tom’s delivery is well organized, highly educational, delightfully humorous and exciting from start to finish.  I would highly recommend the Creature Teacher!

“Kids and parents love the program Tom did at my library.  It was educational, entertaining and engaging.  Tom is passionate about reptiles and does an excellent job sharing his love and knowledge with everyone.”

The Creature Teacher’s show was wonderful!  Tom knows so much about the animals.  His sense of humor and animals capture old and young alike.  We are looking forward to having him come back next summer.

We, the students and the teachers of St. John’s School, loved Tom’s presentation.  The variety of animals was great and his presentation was engaging, educational and exciting.  It was fun learning about each of the different animals and many children left the presentation saying they were going home and asking their parents to get one of the animals that Tom shared with us for a pet.  Thanks Tom for a presentation well done.

The Creature Teacher was so much fun!  All of our preschoolers, ages 3-5 were engaged the whole time. He had a variety of animals to see and touch. He was very informational, patient and eager to share. I would highly recommend him for an in-house field trip or even a Birthday party! We will most definitely ask for him to come back.

Tom did a wonderful job presenting to our K-4 students at K-W.  He shared many interesting facts and kept the students and staff engaged throughout the whole presentation. Tom had a variety of reptiles and amphibians to show the students, and the students were even able to pet the creatures at the end of the presentation. I would highly recommend Tom’s presentation to other schools.
