“A dictionary teaches a child how to approach a problem and use critical thinking skills by sounding out the word and finding it in the dictionary. This simple task gives them a feeling of self-confidence and satisfaction that they cannot get online.”
Our director, Mary French, had the opportunity to meet some members of the Oak Harbor Kiwanis Club at a Kiwanis Convention in Oregon. The club has donated over 6,600 dictionaries over the past 13 years.
