Sifting through my daughter's books over the weekend, I found a large one which is packed full of stories and rhymes in large print for parents and children to read together. I bought it for her when she was three or four and as she's now 23.
I took it along to the collection box at the supermarket as part of my shopping yesterday which is to the left of the main entrance of the store. There were a couple of the security people standing close by and one of them said, 'That's a large book, what is it?”
I explained what it was and he asked if it was okay to take it out. He was looking through it and said it might be suitable for his niece.
I smiled as I walked away and then added, 'If it's any use to you, please do take it.' I hope he did because it's pleasing to think it has gone to a good home.
