Sister Dalley reading "Are You My Mother?"
"The kids, 10 of them, really loved the new books and toys (contributed by Dayna et al and sent) by way of Ron Hardinger. . . . I also have a variety of books in a carrying case that I call a mobile library to take to kids that live too far away to come to the church. . . . The girls made a whole scene with the puzzles and the lace up cards. They were Irene, Annah, Alice and Mary. The boys, Mike, Felix and Alvin, and Edwin loved the cars and soldiers and played well together. We had a story time which they sat and just ate up. In the picture with Sister Dalley holding a book I was reading "Are You My Mother," Notice the boy holding up the book. He wanted me to reads the story of Sampson from the bible story book so of course I did. His name is Felix, a delightful, smart kid who is also the one holding the transformer. He would not leave until he was sure the books and toys would be locked up as he was afraid other children would come in and "carry them" or steal them. We put locks on the bottom two drawers of the primary cabinet to keep them safe .
"We now have almost 150 books and magazines and activity books. We open once a week on Wednesday night between 5 and 7. Only those who have their parents sign a permission slip can check out books but all who come can read while they are in there."
