"Wickedly funny!"
Parenting Magazine
"A delightfully subversive antidote to Mr. Rogers."

"A one-man symphony of comic anarchy.
At a time when vast numbers of our kids see school as endless drudgery,

The
Baltimore Sun
Baltimore, Maryland
"He gives kids the giggles. Tons of giggles. And the children might be joined by chuckling parents that Polisar entertained 30 years ago."
