The Book With No Pictures PA Day Program this Friday

On Friday November 14 ( PA Day), at 2 pm, Lincoln Public Library present Mr. Bubbles, reading The Book with No Pictures by B.J. Novak. This wonderful book will delight children of all ages. At the Fleming Library in Beamsville.

It is free to attend and drop in!

"Mr Bubbles”, aka Jens Hansen, is one of Lincoln's best-known actors. He has performed with the Lincoln Lamplighters for the past 10 years, and has appeared with the Peninsula Players in Grimsby and the Grimsby Museum's Cemetery Tours. Before moving to Canada in 2001, Jens acted in various productions in Bermuda and the UK.

In addition to his work onstage, Jens has been reading to children for years, and has been at schools and libraries from Bermuda to Beamsville. It was at Senator Gibson Public School that Jens received the name “Mr. Bubbles” because he often read the Mr. Men series of books to the students there! 


Jens has also connected with children while underwater! For five years he was a volunteer scuba diver at the Bermuda Aquarium, and performed 'dive talks' in the North Rock Exhibit, a 145,000 gallon tank with sharks, barracudas, octopus, lobsters, scorpion fish, groupers and all sorts of amazing fish. With a microphone inside his mask, he could answer questions from his audience, perform underwater acrobatics, sing silly songs and make jokes. One of his young fans called him 'Superwaterman' and the name stuck, in more ways than one –
Jens even appeared on a real Bermuda postage stamp as Superwaterman!
