Shawna from a public library in Weiner, AR,

is a Star because She has worked at our local library for the past two summers on the Workforce program.  She is so dedicated to her work that during the past summer I placed her incharge of crafting day and gaming day.  I have never been able to fully trust someone her age to do these projects and know that they would be completed in the manner Shawna has done them.  All the children love her and the adult patrons have grown very fond of her as well.  She will be working again this summer and I am very excited about being able to plan extra events because of the help that I get from her.  She is also a very good Christan girl whom I know is trustworthy of all library records and information.  I am very thankful to have her work at our library.  She deserves an award for her dedication. Thank you to Valerie for this nomination.
