Letter from a Visitor

Random Sunday at Mustard Seeds
The following is excerpted from a note we received from two young girls who visited our library while visiting relatives in Kolkata:

Dear Mustard Seeds,

Than you very much for loaning us the books!  I managed to read almost all of them.  I had to stop halfway through "Eats, Shoots & Leaves," which I must say is incredibly interesting.  I very much enjoyed the other books as well.  It seems ironic to me that back in the US we have a city library with thousands of books, yet I found the selection in this little library far better.

The board game was also great fun.  My sister and I had an excellent time with it.  Plus, now I finally know where all the cities that people talk about actually are!  I hope your kids enjoy it as much as we did.  Hopefully, we will be able to get it in the US and play.  Mom, in the end, did not play with us (which you probably could have foretold), but even with only two people it was still great fun.

Thank you again and best wishes for your library.

Tara and Maya

I bet some of you didn't know that in addition to great books, we also loan games out at Mustard Seeds!
