What We Say, and What Kids Hear =0)

So today on a kids tour of the library, I had a couple of kids who asked specific questions about how the library is funded and why it is free. I explained that everything is free because parents and grandparents and teachers pay for the library with taxes.

I saw Mrs. Patel (the owner of the coffee kiosk in the lobby) a few hours later. She said that she always listens to the tours when we come by and likes to hear what we have to say. She said that today when I was turning around from answering questions, several of the kids turned to the coffeee kiosk with grins on their faces. The teacher started waving her hands like no no no. Both Mr. and Mrs. Patel got a good kick out of it.
