Endorsements Page Unveiled

September 23, 2014

Ready to Present Today’s post is to let everyone know that I’m rolling out my endorsement page today. If you want to add a comment to the page, contact me at info@trundlebedtales.com

In my efforts to reorganize my blog, I decided a page dedicated to endorsements would be in order. If you’d like to add yours or make a comment, please contact me at info@trundlebedtales.com

Please remember Sarah Uthoff!  She is also a Humanities Iowa speaker.  Sarah is an expert on Laura Ingalls Wilder and has a variety of programs related to Laura.  Sarah also has an excellent program on One Room Schoolhouses. She also has other programs, but I am just speaking about the programs she has done for me.

Sarah is an excellent speaker and extremely knowledgeable.  I’ve been having  her present programs at the North Liberty Comm. Library for years, and I  learn something every time she presents.  Sarah is engaging and lots of fun  and her programs attract attendees from children through senior citizens.  I  really can’t recommend her enough!

Here is her website: http://www.trundlebedtales.com

“William Anderson is a noted Wilder expert; but Iowa has its own expert in Sarah S. Uthoff who frequently writes about Wilder on her Trundlebed Tales site.”

In addition to Sarah’s active online presence, Sarah has a full repertoire of speaking programs that she is able to give to audiences of all age groups.  Sarah Uthoff is one of the finest contemporary experts on the life and times of Laura Ingalls Wilder actively writing and presenting today.  She has a portfolio of possible programs that she is able to draw from – giving groups and organizations just the focus needed.  Her programs extend from general background information to, my favorite, an “interactive visit with Laura using some of Laura’s own words.”  Laura often comes dressed in the era about which she is speaking.  Those in the audience might even think she has gone beyond channeling Laura’s words and has actually become Laura.  Sarah is a most interesting speaker and brings much to those who have an interest in learning more about the prairie life in the late 1800s.  Her programs are of interest to adults and fascinating to younger readers. If you have a chance to hear her speak or to invite her to your conference/library—don’t miss the opportunity.

“I’ve only had good comments about your program. Several people who didn’t make it asked if we could do it again so they could come. I said perhaps sometime down the road. I’ve had a packed house for kids’ programs, but not that many adults before. I hope your drive home was pleasant and you made it home in time to get the chores done.”

Sarah S. Uthoff is the main force behind Trundlebed Tales fighting to bring the History, Mystery, Magic and Imagination of Laura Ingalls Wilder and other greats of children’s literature and history to life for a new generation.Attend one of her programs, schedule one yourself, watch her videos, listen to her podcast, and find her on FacebookTwitterGoogle+, LinkedIn, and Academia.edu. She is currently acting President of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Legacy and Research Association. Professionally she is a reference librarian at Kirkwood Community College and director of the Oxford (Iowa) Public Library.

Endorsment Page

March 28, 2014

I’m going to be doing a little remolding of the blog and adding a couple of different pages that I hope people will find

Packing Up 2

Packing Up 2

useful. One I should have had a long time ago is an endorsements page.

I haven’t been as organized as I should have been through the years collecting those kind comments people made and getting permission to share them. I think the time has come to take the project on. If you have seen me present and want to make a comment to be included either respond in a comment to this post or e-mail me at info@trundlebedtales.com

Here’s one to start you off. Elaine generously gave me permission to use her recent post on IowaLib.

Mentions August 2013

September 4, 2013

BrandonIn August the Chicago Tribune included a lovely report by Sam Weller about his Laura Ingalls Wilder fandom. Weller is widely known for his work on Ray Bradbury. Find him on Twitter at: @Sam__Weller
The article includes a shout out to me: “There is a popular podcast, “Trundlebed Tales,” hosted and produced by Laura Ingalls Wilder scholar Sarah S. Uthoff.” LauraPalooza and Laura Days in Pepin also get shoutouts.

I listed these next two last month, but since both speaking engagements are coming up in September I wanted to repeat them.

Did you know you could find me here?

September 4, 2011

I’ve recently been surprised by finding some people I knew on one social media network on another. I don’t think we always do a great job letting people know where all we are. So here’s a current rundown.

April Update

April 7, 2011

I’m trying  a new feature. I’m going to do a quick 15 minute update of what Laura events are coming up in the next month. Let me know if you enjoy it or find it helpful. I’m not sure, but thought I’d give it a try.

What’s missing from the gap is that I don’t approve everybody who requests on Facebook, but I do approve Laura fans, please put in a note so I realize that’s why you’re asking.

Take a Bite Out of History

April 1, 2011
Baking on a wood burning stove

Baking at Ushers Ferry

My radio show’s, Trundlebed Tales Radio, primary focus is Laura Ingalls Wilder. However, I think understanding Laura requires understanding things she knew and experienced in her life. You start researching Laura and then you want a Laura dress, you want to make the stuff she and Ma made, and each step you take along Laura fandom draws you deeper into wanting to know more about life in the 19th century. So from time to time the show will do a special episode where we look at food history and it’s current practice.

My first historic foodways episode will air Sunday, April 3, 2011 6 PM ET, 5 PM CT, 4 PM MT and 3 PM PT. Take a Bite Out of History: Biscuits will feature the same basic information I used when doing the “prairie meal” section of the Laura Ingalls Wilder Patch at Ushers Ferry.

Call in and listen or talk at:  (714) 242-5253 or toll free 1-877-633-9389

I’m still experimenting with what times bring in the largest live audience. So far week night seem to do better, but I’m giving the weekend another chance. Hopefully soon I’ll settle on a regular broadcast pattern although it might be interrupted depending on when interviewees are available.
