One of the treasures of New England is the many ways people throughout the region reach out and help other. Some of these are spontaneous efforts, and some of these are organized efforts.
An example of the latter is the Book Buddies program hosted by the Kelley Library in Salem, New Hampshire. Book Buddies is a one-to-one volunteer program that encourages children and teens to discover the joy of books together. The library pairs Big Book Buddies, ages 12 to 18, with Little Book Buddies, ages 4 to 9, for an hour of reading fun.
