Chuck STroschein donated a small statue to our Orchards library in memory of his mother who used to attend our school! Mr. Stroschein’s mother instilled in her family the value of reading and an education. The statue that was donated is a smaller version of one displayed at Lewiston Public Library. A gratitude toward her mother for sparking a more than 70-year love of reading inspired Lewiston artist Sharon Taylor Hall’s work. The artist wanted to encourage other mothers to still take the time to read to their children. “Because I think it makes a big difference in how children feel about books.” stated Ms. Hall.
