At 11 AM on Saturday, November 16, popular children’s singer/songwriter Mike the Music Man will break the silence at the West Roxbury Branch Library with his repertoire of original songs and wacky versions of kid favorites.
Mike’s performance is part of the Saturday Children’s Used Book Sale, which runs from 10 AM to 3 PM in the library lecture hall and is sponsored by the Friends of the West Roxbury Branch Library.
The Friends’ book sales provide a large chunk of the funding which finances programming for the branch library.
A larger book sale for all ages is held in June.
Mike Slattery has been entertaining kids aged one to eight for the past 17 years at venues such as schools, birthday parties, and city parks.
He also produced a CD of original songs, “Ducky Rock & Roll.”
Slattery’s shows are filled with stories, singing, dancing and silliness.
The performance also features a short puppet show starring Snappy the Alligator and Smelly the Skunk, who engage with the children.
Slattery travels with a box full of props including character hats (hippo, cheeseburger, elephant, pizza) and percussion instruments designed to encourage audience participation.
He performs one magic trick with what he calls his “slightly magic” hat.
The performance and book sale are open to the public.
Admission is free.
