Ken Norwalk, of Canaan, reads a picture book to his grand daughter Elorah Bougher, 3, after browsing childrens books during preparations for the Friends of Philip Read Memorial Library's annual book sale at Plainfield Village Town Hall in Plainfield, N.H., on Friday, August 30, 2024. Norwalk stopped by to see if his mother, former library director Nancy Norwalk, needed help setting up for the sale, which will take place on Saturday, Sept. 7 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday, Sept. 8 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Proceeds will benefit programming and equipment at the library.
