Rob & Maggie Erdmann visit KPLD

We had a wonderful time on June 11th when Rob Erdmann presented his "Illinois Erdmann Read on the Wild Side" Program with help from daughter Maggie and many of his puppet friends. Rob showed us delightful magic tricks and allowed students to assist. His puppet pals were very amusing and we heard wonderful music (some fun stuff from the 80's!). What a great day! Check our website for upcoming events!
