Shell in China

Exciting news on the "Book Nook" front! We have been told that we can have a room in the library building after the May holiday!! I am so excited I can barely contain it. Rachel found out last week and scurried across campus and up the seven flights of stairs to where I teach in the science building, but I didn’t have class, so I wasn’t there. But, that just goes to show how thrilled we are about this new development!

Now, we are waiting on books. She has some coming from her church in the States and I have some coming from a group that donates books, but we are still in need of more resources. We are looking for donations of young adult books (both fiction and non-fiction), as well as magazine subscriptions.

If you can help by even subscribing to a -single magazine for just twelve or twenty-four months, that would be fabulous! Or send an M-bag (see your local post office for details) to China with books in it. Anything that you can do to help us would make my day, but it would make the lifetime of some of my students!

Thanks again to everyone at home who is helping with this creation. If you have any questions (including a mailing address!) or ideas, please email me at shellinchina@yahoo.com
