Children’s Stories
"Me first! Me first!" cried the children. You rarely see computers in this neighborhood in New York, and even less often on the street.
Katia liked it when Denis and the other volunteers brought the computer to the Street Library. All the children took turns writing on the computer.
"No, not her!" two boys shouted. "She’s dumb. She can’t even read the letters."
It was true that at nine years old Katia did not know the alphabet. But she was not stupid!
It was just that she had a lot of responsibilities, like shopping and helping take care of her little brother, who has asthma.
