Community Service and You, Friday, Period 2, A Library on the Mainland
After your typical message, meeting at the causeway, and short bus trip, the class was at a library. The library was currently silent.
"Depending on how well you know me, you'll know that I put an extra emphasis on children who need a little help," Bruce said. "Anything from helping out orphanages to making sure children are exposed to books, that is one of the most important things we can do. And as you'll notice, we're not at an orphanage today."
Bruce timed it well, because just then a large group of children with a slightly harried-looking adult came into the library.
"I'll hold them off for a few minutes," Bruce promised. "But by the time the kids here are ready, I want all of my students to have picked a book to read and get ready to do just that."

Re: Reading Rainbow!
She didn't know Braille, but her Spanish was decent enough that she could read it. And even translate it (roughly) if there were only kids who spoke English in the library today.
