If there is one good deal that social media site Facebook is doing to ease the tension of residents who are trapped inside their homes during the coronavirus crisis is that the Gainesville Fire Department is holding a read a book project that will be on the internet every evening around 6:30pm It is one way for the children who cannot go to school due to the lockdown to spend quality time with their relatives in the evenings continuing to develop their reading skills until the schools will reopen as soon as this health crisis has passed. The firefighters will be doing their part to serve their community during this rough stretch of the road.

I have heard that YouTube has placed 100 movies in Spanish here. It will be perfect for the population that cannot read fast enough subtitles.

That Is one good idea for You Tube to share the videos in Spanish for our countrymen and countrywomen.

The firefighters need their rests as well. I hope that they do not need to overstretch themselves on this.

I think that it will have one different fireman a night reading books to the children.
