Don’t Volunteer at Your Kids’ School
The Book Fair is coming by hook or by crook. Where students buy novelties instead of a book. We’ll make lots of profit but books & not cash. I’m so overwhelmed I’ve developed a rash! The library’s busy, so the fair has no home! The shelves are on wheels so the school we must roam.…
