"Thank you." Next came Marcus's gift.The room became unusually quiet as Lily opened the large box.Inside were dozens of children's books.Storybooks,picture books,science books.Books about stars, oceans, animals, history, and imagination.There was even a small wooden bookshelf Marcus had built himself.

The stories are about the bear characters overcoming hard things to help cheer the kids on.” “That’s wonderful! Are those the books I’ll be reading to the kids today?” “Yes.
