A Bad Penny Always Comes Back

A big thank you goes out to the Rotary Clubs of Burlington for donating "A Bad Penny Always Comes Back". It's a true story of friendship between the Netherlands and Canada. Canadian food drops helped many Dutch people survive "The Hunger Winter of 1944". This story reminds us that the tulips that bloom on Ottawa's Parliament Hill are an enduring symbol of friendship between the Netherlands and Canada. Thank you to Stan Jones, the wireless operator on the "Bad Penny", who took the time to sign our copy. Be sure to come by the Library and check out this informative book.

Thank you Rotary Clubs of Burlington for your generous donation!
