If you have a Facebook account, search “Boston Pops dePaola” and you’ll be able to see a clip of Tomie reading THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS at a 2018 Holiday Pops concert.
This clip should be opposite the word “exuberant” in an internet dictionary. “Happy” doesn’t adequately describe what he felt during and after the reading.
You’ll also be able to see several photos from past performances. (Bob)
