[Bookstoprisoners] Fwd: A message from the Books to Prisoners website

[Susan Porter Bruce]

I can do it. (I actually know Christine.) I'd have to think about 30  
minutes worth of stuff, but will bring in some props.

If someone else is keen, that would be fine with me. Or does someone  
else want to come along? We might present better in tandem. One of  
you students---- Bob, Noah, Steve, April?

Christine, let me know the best time to show up.
