<div dir="ltr">Last December while weeding I found a couple chapter books with a$1 bill in them with a note that said something to the effect of "It's your lucky day. Here's a book buck. Keep reading." About 2 months later I found out that it was an advent calendar thing that a 4th grader did. He put 5 of them in books in our children's section. It was pretty exciting all around. Both the finding and the finding out. <div><br></div><div>Jane</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 23, 2015 at 10:36 AM, Suzy Coleman <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:SCOLEMAN@ci.tualatin.or.us" target="_blank">SCOLEMAN@ci.tualatin.or.us</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
