Project Overview
Count Whackula believes that each time a book is opened, readers have the opportunity to explore regular worlds, meet outrageous characters, and learn how to do the most amazing things. In short, there is a ghoulish adventure waiting inside of every book. A family oriented event, this is designed for kids pre-kindergarten through 5th grade, filled with storytelling, drama, comedy, magic, lots of great books and audience participation.
