The Candy Dragon Man

Canadian Children's Author/Entertainer David Carruthers Reads to a Group of Children
Introducing David Carruthers, an author from London, to those who don't know him. David writes books for children and has published 17 books to date with several more in the works. "The Candy Dragon" is one of his books that the children really love.

I have been working with David for a few weeks booking school and day care presentations for him. He does magic tricks, basketball tricks, interactive story telling, an anti-bullying presentation, "The Cool Ghoul" one-man show, writing workshops etc. His main goal is to instill positive life skills in the children.

I Wanna Be Cool!

I attended one of his day care presentations towards the end of October, so I thought I would share some of the photos with you.  

As you can see, David involves the children in his story-telling. They have a great time with him.

The Cool Ghoul

 I'm hoping to check out part of his full-day presentations in the elementary schools as well. He has been in over 800 schools to date.

One of David's dreams is to give back to the community in greater measure than he has done so far. He is constantly looking ahead to greater things and is full of energy and optimism. He loves to do fundraisers, and one of his projects is to help the London Food Bank and, eventually, food banks across Canada.
