This is a great program. The children are always so excited to receive their books. They smile and say, “I get to keep this?” to which we gladly answer yes.
George Weber, Rotary Club of South Louisville Okolona, Louisville, KY

Pat Sherwood, Tucumcari Elks Lodge # 1172, Tucumcari Elementary School, Tucumcari, NM
A special thanks to the ELKS for the dictionaries. The reason I am so late in sending a thank you is that I wanted to see how the students reacted with the dictionaries.
