I really like the Morristown Neighborhood House because it tries to improve the lives of children by addressing the needs of the community as a whole. The services include daycare and preschool, before and after-school care, mentoring, tutoring, a career center, a computer lab, gang intervention, scholarship assistance, summer camp and recreation for all ages. Jane and I went to the after-school program to do our Little Red Riding Hood program and give away books. Jane read the straight version of the story and I used costumes, masks and hats to involve the kids in creating an adaptation. When Jane reads a story, every eye is on her because she does such great voices and uses such expressive body language as she reads. It was great! I got to answer my favorite question: Do I get to keep this book? Whenever I hear that question, I know that our mission has value.
