Tripod in the library

 -What is that?- asked Catherine passing by a tripod

-Tripod

-Why?

Good question. Why do we need the tripod in the library?

- I video recorded my reading.

-Wow!

I feel “Wow!” myself.

I did it again.

A Middle aged Russian woman, living 7 years in the US, never studied English at the University, speaks with a noticeable accent, reads children’s books in English, and records them on the phone. 

How did it happen?

It’s all Covid-19 and the pandemic’s fault. If Covid-19 hadn’t stormed in our lives, I probably would have continued giving my knitting classes and/or could have made a couple of programs about Russian favorite food. 

In the meantime, I tempt the patience of children and their parents by reading children's books. I try to be nice, so I limit time showing my face in the video. 

I sent the recording to the manager of the children’s department of the NB library. She decides when to post it on the FB Library page.

By the way, today I was reading a book “Life is about sharing” written by a family company Poopshkin.com.

And I used the tripod gifted to me by friend Lydia Murphy. 

Truly ...life is about sharing
