April Meeting

The Running Dream

by Wendelin Van Draanen



What if you lived to run . . . .
                                                             . . . and that was taken from you?

March Meeting




Sang Ly lives in Cambodia's largest dump, Stung Meanchey, with her husband, Ki, and infant son.  Everyday is a chore for survival.  It has been said that hope dies at Stung Meanchey.  Along with their constant struggle is the knowledge that every month, the "Cow" comes to collect the family's rent.
Yes, hope seems like a forgotten idea in a place where so many items and people are forgotten, until one day . . .when Ki finds a tattered old book.

Sometimes, hope and heroes turn up in the strangest of stories.
