My First Year by Brian Moses

My name is Brian Moses. I am enjoying coming to the library for tutoring. This is my first year. My helper and friend Gordon used to take me to movies and the waterfront. He got me involved in this. He brought me down to the library to talk with Rachel. Then Rachel called me and told me she could give me a tutor to help me learn to read. I like to come to learn about money and numbers with coloured rods also.

I am married to Marcy. We got married 19 years ago. We moved to a new apartment on Bayers Road in 2005. I take a bus to the Stone Hearth Bakery to be on time for work. I used to put bagel dough on a machine then the bagels got cut by a machine and went on a wheel. It took them to the baking sheets and they went to the tray racks, then to the oven. Now I work at a table stretching the bagels. I like this work better. I want to try different things. Sometime I would like to put the bagels in bags and tie the bags.

Maggie by Julie-Lynne Stanhope

My dog Maggie, a West Highland Terrier, is the most wonderful dog in the world! She came to live with us last May when she was 10 weeks old.

Maggie had her first vacation last summer. We went to New Glasgow and stayed in a cottage at Melmerby Beach. You should have seen Maggie on the boogie board! She had a great time at the shore, chasing birds, cats, dogs, squirrels and a raccoon.

She went to obedience school in Bedford. Then is September, she started agility school in Mt.Uniacke. She goes every Saturday morning. There are many things to learn but sometimes she doesn’t want to focus. I say to her, “Maggie, I work very hard to win gold medals. You can be a champion too.”
