Vox Pop - Books for teachers update

Vox Pop

In the November 9 issue, I asked for your help in donating books requested by Medford School District teachers. Two titles have been deleted from the list! I’ve learned that a donation by Linda Reynolds, retired Medford Area Public School Teacher, covered the price of all the copies of one of the titles. I’ve scrimped enough to donate all the copies of another title. If the list continues to be whittled away like this, it’ll be done in a year!

The Medford School District says it can accept your donation for this project. It has no other active funds, but you can earmark any check or money order as “For Book Fund” and pay to the order of the Medford School District. The address is 124 W State St., Medford, Wi. 54451. If you want to remain anonymous, note that on your donation. I’ll continue to try to update you occasionally. Below is the list of titles yet to be donated so you can look them up.

1) Together We Grow by Vaught, S. (20) 2) Junebug by Daniels, N. (19) 3) How Can We Be Kind? by Halfmann, J. (18) 4) Finding Wild by Wagner Lloyd, M. (17) 5) Gwen the Rescue Hen by Crawford, L. (15) 6) Our Animal Neighbors by Ricard, M. (15) 7) Being Kind to Animals by Lindeen, M. (13) 8) Chickpea Runs Away by Colling, S. (13) 9) Rescuer of Tiny Creatures by Manley, C. (13) 10) Happy Animals: Friends Not Food by Raphael, L. and Saks, G. (11) 11) Sprig the Rescue Pig by Crawford, L. (11) 12) Plant-powered Animal Protectors by O’ Halloran, Y.

With appreciation for any contribution to this project. — Michael J Riegert, Medford
