These last months have been busy for Mobile Libraries, books and the pink suitcase have been continue their route to rural areas!
On May, our Mobile Libraries Project was invited by the Public Library System of Medellin to join their annual Encuentro de Bibliotecas Populares y Comunitarias, it was great to explain to our Columbian friends about our this emblematic project and the way how we keep going on libraries promotion in rural areas.
During these months, children keep their enthusiasm for books, they read Willy's books by Anthony Browne, like "Willy the Wimp", "Willy the Champ", "Willy the Wizard", each kid step by step drew their own Chimp, and the called it by different adjectives such as "Willy el Guapo" (Willy the Handsome) or "Willy el mono" (Willy the Chimp) Really fun activities!
On July, we colaborated with "Bosque de Colores", in the city of Guayaquil, Cuentos en la Plaza brought literacy to children to this annual festival, it was leading by the local community from La Padrera III Neighborhood, it was our pleasure to be there!
