Toy donation makes library more fun

DeKALB – DeKalb Public Library patron Lori Brown commissioned construction of a new dollhouse by Mick Reeves for the library’s youth services department.

Children immediately  took a liking to it and began using the many rooms of the house. Lisa
Vogel painted and donated sky designs resting behind the dollhouse, giving the space and dollhouse a nestled, inviting presence. Brown also painted and donated some “residents”
to fill the dollhouse, as well as donating a road-patterned carpet and a variety of wooden road signs.
