Margaret at the blog Throwing Chanclas recently shared the plight of a school in her neighborhood:
The
local junior/senior high school has not been able to purchase new books
since the 90s. Some of the "check outs" for old books are in the 1980s.
There are no books by people of color in the library. Hardly any books
by women are in the few book cases except your standard Austen and Lee.
It's an uninviting place. There hasn't been a librarian for nearly a
decade. And volunteers weren't allowed. The last eight years students
couldn't even check out books.
But all that is changing now.
Margaret is now collecting books for the library. Let's help out! You can donate books via their Amazon wishlist or by sending books directly to the address below. For more informaion, please email Margaret and visit her blog.
Greenville High School/Indian Valley Academy

Greenville, CA 95947
If sending during the month of July, when school is closed, please send to:

We all read and write something each and every day. Regardless if we refer to e-mails, blogs, newspaper or many other items, there are certain documents which are very well written, but there are some which have various spelling and grammar mistakes. See more sentence fragment checker
Hi.....
A book about love, heartbreak, travel, identity, and the “accidents” of fate, Just One Day shows us how sometimes in order to get found, you first have to get lost. . . and how often the people we are seeking are much closer than we know. The first in a sweepingly romantic duet of novels.
