The Summer Reading Program changed its focus, so the children did not earn stickers for their reading records (children filled squares for the days they read.) The children who participated in St. James did make pictures of what they learned. The pictures were made with the paper dolls. Nobody recorded a thimble theater play. The most popular activity in St. James was creating pictures with paper dolls. In Darfur the kids enjoyed playing the Snap game very much. Everyone enjoyed their soda fountain drinks.
