Children receive books
Dozens of children's faces lit up Tuesday afternoon as students from Lenwil Elementary School perused the school's library to grab a handful of books they'll get to keep forever.
For the first time, students in pre-kindergarten through second grade were allowed to pick out five books to take home and keep in their personal library.
The books were provided through the Title 1 Read With Me program. On Tuesday, Lenwil Elementary gave away more than 1,000 books to 207 students.
Principal Edwin Davis watched with pride as students lined up in the library to pick out their books.
