OUR LIBRARY EXPEDITION
When I was 12, I recall lining up all of my younger siblings in chronological order, and marching up the street to our neighborhood library in Rock Hill, Missouri, which then occupied part of an old house that was later destroyed, when the new one was built. It was quite an expedition for us as we became acquainted with our new community into which we had moved only a couple of months before. Cultivating a love of books and learning is the greatest gift of all, that anyone can give another!
