Deseret Book, with help from its customers, has put books into the hands of tens of thousands of children worldwide; in fact, nearly 50,000 books have been shipped to areas such as Ghana, the Pacific Islands, Russia, Eastern Europe, and most recently to Zimbabwe… places where there is limited access to books.
Dear members of latter day saints,
My name is Kofi. I am nine years old. I live at Ridge near K.K.C.L. The name of my father is Kwesi Assan-Brew. The name of my mother is Grace Assan-Brew. The name of my school is Burma Camp Basic School. I am in class four. I choose to come to the library because I want to be clever. I read books and fix puzzles at the library. The library has changed me to become a good reader. My favourite book is Sika in the Snow. My favourite food is rice and stew. The game I like best is football.
I thank you for the beautiful books.

Dear members of latter day saint,
I am very grateful to write to you. I'm a boy of thirteen years of age. I'm also in the Junior Secondary School (JSS).
I choose to come to the library because it improves children's ability to learn. Also it helps children to learn in a peaceful condition. The library also helps illiterate to read and write. There are different activities done at the library such as sack races, filling the bottle, cultural dancing which is sponsored by a Canadian donor, fixing puzzles. The puzzles at the library are brought by donors all over the world to express their appreciation to the library.
I would like to thank you for your great and wonderful prize you gave to the library. Thus donating storybooks to the library. We are very happy for the donation. We thank you for helping the library develop and have more books. May the Almighty God bless you all.
Thank you,
Obed Hgyepong
