I met my friend and community counterpart Julia in Dnepropetrovsk yesterday to begin the process of purchasing new books for our library! The experience was great and we had a lot of fun buying English books for our young readers here in Novomoskovsk. We went to 4 book stores and bought practically everything. The selections were limited to some great American and English classics, such as Jack London and H.G. Wells. My new goal is to locate books of the late 20th and early 21st century authors. We still have a lot to buy and are looking forward to our next shopping trip...to Kharkiv! Thanks to all of you who have made this possible. I'd also like to again thank the Internation Book Project for helping us get our project off the ground with a wonderful donation of English books from America. They mentioned us in their blog and I am very proud!
