Study Guide: PIERROT &
PIROUETTE
|
|
We suggest Mr. Stolzenberg’s books, “Be A Clown”
and “Be A Mime”
published
by Sterling Publishing Co.
These are thorough instructional books for young people with hundreds
of photos about Mime and Clowning. Excellent for preparation and
follow up activities. Both books come highly recommended by THE AMERICAN
LIBRARY ASSOCIATION & LIBRARY JOURNAL.
