What they’re saying
about the program
Joyce and Ellen have presented their book talks to more than 50 groups in 5 states, with audiences ranging in size from 25 to more than 300 people. They’ve received only rave reviews from audiences at JCCs; Hadassah meetings; Jewish federations, synagogue sisterhoods, men’s clubs and senior groups; regional Jewish book fairs; book stores and more.
“Enjoyable. Enlightening. Excellent. These are just a few of the words I have heard used by our members to describe the program you presented last Sunday... Rarely has a program been so universally acclaimed by our congregation.”
“You received rave reviews for your session. Not only did they laugh and have fun, but they reported learning as well.”
“I loved your spiel. Everything about it was engaging, from how the book came about and how you decided on words and spelling to the audience participation part, where I had to dig for the meanings of words I’ve heard.”
“What a terrific program. Our sisterhood members were thoroughly entertained and absorbed by your presentation of Shmoozing With The Word Mavens. Thank you so much for making our closing dinner such an outstanding event.”
