Jonathan Green week, part 2


The Jonathan Green week festivities were busy and moving experiences, both for the presenters and the audience. It's touching to hear Jonathan speak and he has a great rapport with the audience. People love him and he couldn't be more gracious and giving.
He got a chance to go into the Children's department and was blown away by the paper dolls. Loved Karine's quilt, too. It's the photo above. What a creative use of his work--and he thought so too.

We're lucky that a man of his stature is such a library supporter and the community is indebted to him. I know that there are many students who will never forget meeting him. Cindy Schweinfest, Branch Manager Mount Pleasant Regional Library had this to say. "We generally do not get a large turnout for programs for adults at MTP (even though we usually get crowds to attend childrens, and especially summer reading programs). So many of the people shook my hand as they were leaving and thanked me for having the program, so I definitely consider this a complete success." I know these comments hold true across the county.
