THE POWER OF BOOKS

Books are awesome. People read them for many reasons - to learn something, to entertain themselves, to escape from worries. They can also bring a community together.

In today's video, we learn about the Little Free Library. Mr Kevin Sullivan has installed a mini-library in front of his home near Washington, D.C. In it, he places books that he has finished reading so that anyone who is interested can take them home to read. In return, they can bring their finished books and place them in his mini-library for others to read as well. This is better than throwing their books away or keeping them at home, unused.

Do you like reading? Do you think that such a mini-library could work in your neighbourhood? Perhaps it's something you can do in school - start a little book-sharing circle with your friends and exchange books with each other.
