"Debbie Wagenbach did an excellent job presenting to my elementary.  She talked to my Pk-2 in
one grouping and 3-6 in the other grouping.  She involved the students very well.  She read her
book, “The Grouchies” to both groups.  Both the young and older students were highly interested
in her presentation.  I would highly recommend her to other elementary principals."

The Grouchies
"Debbie Wagenbach visited our school and gave two wonderful presentations to our students - a
fun-filled, keep the grouchies away presentation for the lower grades, and a thoroughly engaging,
writing-centered one for our upper students.  I highly recommend having Miss Debbie visit your
school.  Over a month later our students are still talking about "The Grouchies."
