A note from Glenn...

After 20 years of producing original music and performing high energy educational concerts in schools, I was inspired to summarize my message and create a book that teachers, parents and kids could enjoy together. 

“Mr. Ducky Wucky – The Wonderful Secret” is the culmination of thousands of performances, hundreds of conversations, and the unwavering belief that all kids have the power to suceed and enjoy a happy, abundant life.  

“The Wonderful Secret” is a story about a simple, yet powerful life lesson that works.  I look forward to sharing it with your school either “live in concert” or “live in workshop”.



'Q & A' with Glenn Colton
Here are a few details about my author visits.
Like my concerts, the booking process is very user friendly.


How would describe your Author Visit Workshops?

GC   The objective is to inspire kids to read and write for pleasure – and spend less time with TV and videogames.  I engage the group with humor, songs and surprises, and conduct them in a library or classroom setting.  Each session is age appropriate, and I provide everything I need.  It is very much an interactive hands-on experience.

How many students attend each workshop? 

GC   The workshop should be by grade level (or near grade levels if combinations are necessary) and may be as large as you can fit into the space.

How long is each session ?

GC   Each session is 25 minutes and I need at least 10 minutes between sessions to regroup my materials.  Together with the school we create a half day or full day schedule.

What is covered in your presentations?

GC   My book can be enjoyed on a variety of levels (the story, the music, the life lesson, the characters, the activities, etc).   I work closely with each school to customize a workshop that is age appropriate, engaging, meaningful, and FUN!

What is the cost? 

GC    Fees will be quoted upon request.



Feel free to email me anytime to discuss this and possibly lock in your choice date. 
The author visits are alot of fun, and I'm excited to offer them to schools!

As a composer/performer, Glenn has a true gift of combining memorable melodies and age appropriate lyrics in a variety of genres to educate our children on the values of good citizenship and getting along with others.  The beauty of Glenn's songs is that they could be applied to a variety of settings.
