Dear Little Traveler,
When being asked what childhood memory stuck out in my mind, I was extremely surprised at the picture that flashed in my mind. The image of the front of The Little Traveler. The lunches, puppet shows, and story times that I was given the opportunity to sit through have made a memory that is unforgettable. I remember my mom getting the newsletter and I would anxiously await what event was scheduled.
I was first taken to The Little Traveler when I was five years old. I went with my grandma and mother in order to meet my childhood obsession: Madeline, the character from my favorite book. My grandmother promised me I could take my picture with her. Sure enough, I got my picture and even got to work side by side with my grandma to make a hat just like Madeline’s. Little did I know at the time that this outing would be one of my favorite memories.
My grandma became sick this year with cancer, and during her treatment I kept playing that memory over in my mind, hanging on to such a fun time. I am happy to say my grandma is cancer-free at the moment. I hope we can make another trip to lunch at The Little Traveler once again, and I can feel like “one of the ladies.”
Sincerely,
Kelly Del Valle, Woodridge, IL
Kelly will receive a $50 gift certificate as a token of our thanks for this lovely letter. Send your letters to Almanack Editor, 404 S. Third St., Geneva, IL 60134.
