World Book Night...

World Book Night U.S. is a celebration of books and reading, when 25,000 passionate volunteers across America give a total of half a million books within their communities to those who don’t regularly read.

Lynne, an incredible volunteer, submitted an application for our group to be 'givers'.  This is especially important here because we do not have a bookstore and weather can isolate.  We were all gleeful when our application was accepted.
Book readers are more likely to participate in positive activities such as volunteering, attending cultural events, and even physical exercise.  This awesome group of 'Friends' is proof of that!  There will be a lot more people huddling under their covers with a good book tonight, thanks to Lynne, our volunteers and the World Book Night organization!

You'll be happy to hear how far reaching the effort was today. The sweet lady in purple in lower left of your photo is in my Citizen's Academy class. I will be curling up with A Handmaid's Tail.
