Children's author Bill Buczinsky turning kids on to reading and writing!

Teaching writing to children can be challenging. But everyone knows that the development of early literacy skills through reading and writing is critical to a child’s success in life.

Hi, I'm Bill Buczinsky. After performing over 10,000 live poetry shows and workshops to more than 500,000 kids, I'm convinced that poetry is the answer.

Nothing speaks to struggling readers and writers like the playfulness of poetry. That's why I created the The Strange World Classroom Set. It's designed to make reading and writing fun for even the most reluctant students.

Rave Reviews From Teachers and Parents!

"Bill Buczinsky's empowering message reaches deep into the hearts of children of all ages - a feat difficult to accomplish, but seemingly effortless for this master teacher. I can say without hesitation that in my 20+ years of teaching, no one has ever come into our school and left such an impact on students and teachers as Bill Buczinsky."

-Fred Koch
Award-winning music educator and columnist for Chicago Parent Magazine

"Bill's poetry lights up a room and the children with it! My son listens to his CD Kiss the Fish almost every night. His ode to Shel Silverstein is a masterpiece, so parents get to get in on the fun!"

-Diana Pieczynski
Mother

"Bill Buczinsky has a gift. It is the ability to take words, ordinary words, and coax them into sounds that are a joy to the ear and a delight to the spirit. But his even greater gift is his ability to inspire young people to do the same. In a world so engulfed in the serious and grim, someone like Bill, who challenges youngsters to look for the silly, the fun, the giggly part of the world around them and to paint those scenes in the air with words, is not only nice, it's necessary. The more children who are exposed to Bill and his unique style, the happier our world will be."

-Jim Ross
Worzalla Press

"Bill Buczinsky, with his dynamic personality, poetry and music, brings out the child's voice in people from 6 to 60. He's a pied piper of poetry, enticing children to be creative by making the whole process seem natural and irresistible. He deserves to be on television where he can become the muse to millions of children and their parents."

-Joanne Koch
Director of the National-Louis University Graduate Writing Program
