This morning, a group of us went to several schools to deliver books, aka the book mobile. It isn't an actual vehicle, like in the United States, though. The woman who runs the program is called Wendy, and she was born here, though her extended family now lives in Alabama. Wendy's parents were part of the original Quaker settlement in Monteverde. She moved to the states for a number of years and attended college, but has lived here again since 1990. She takes crates of books to the schools in her car, and children who remembered to bring back the books they borrowed last week may borrow another one. She really wants the children to have books, though, so sometimes will bend the rules and let them take one even if they still have one at home. Today was soccer, however, so the children were rather distracted. Some little soccer fans let me take their pictures.
