The winner of the Friends of the Library (FOL) Valentines’
Day children’s basket drawing is Marissa Sartor. Marissa is nine years old and in 4th
grade at East Elementary in Ozark. Her
family moved to Ozark one year ago from Michigan. Marissa and her mother, Lisa, are the readers
in the family. They love to come to the
library to check out books. Her mother
said that when the whole family comes to the library, some of the family
members borrow movies instead of books. Marissa’s
favorite book is The Snow Day. Marissa is currently reading a book titled The Mouse and the Motorcycle . She can
hardly wait to see how it ends. She says
that sometimes a book may start out boring, but once she gets into reading it,
the book turns out fun. 
The winner of the FOL Valentines’ Day adult basket drawing
is Carlie Gibson from Sparta. Carlie
just turned five years old and is looking forward to starting school next year.
Her two older sisters sometimes read to
her. She enjoys books from the Junie B. Jones and Heloise series. She also likes to play games on her
e-tablet. Carlie and her sisters enjoy
coming to the library to check out books and to participate in the summer
reading program. When asked why she put
her name in the drawing for the adult basket, she said she was eyeing the
chocolate for herself. Mom, Jill, can
have the rest of the items.
