This May 8th marked our 19th year of another wonderful MainStreet Warner Literacy Day at Simonds Elementary. The children and teachers were treated to a presentation from children's author and writing instructor Ralph Fletcher. Each child received a signed copy of his most recent picture book,

The World's Loneliest Elephant.

Thank you Ralph, and to the Simonds PTO, the Kearsarge Regional SAU, MainStreet BookEnds, local families, and the Nancy Sibley Wilkins Town of Warner Trust Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation.

A special thank you to Greg at YCN for this video of the special day.
