Youngster’s Idea To Offer Little Free Library In Berlin Park Approved

BERLIN – Seven-year-old Ellie Zollinger was running around a playground in Salisbury when she screeched to a halt. She was enthralled by what she’d stumbled across — a Little Free Library.

“I ran to my mom to tell her what I found,” she said.

Her mother, Rose Zollinger, said she wasn’t even surprised the Little Free Library, a wooden, house-shaped container housing books, was the highlight of the day for her daughter.
