Attention, area children! The Branson Globe received an exclusive letter from Jolly, the Gingerbread Man, who is spending December at the Friends of the Library Bookstore. Jolly's letter is below:
Hi, kids! Jolly here.
I am so excited! Many of you have come to the bookstore to find me! Don’t you just love reading books! I do! And I love seeing you at the bookstore! One of you will be TAKING ME HOME WITH YOU! All you have to do is write out the hidden message. I have been giving clues every day. Only ONE CHILD can take me home. I will wait until January to pick the child with the correct answer. You will need all of December to figure it out!
Come on in. I’ll be waiting for you!
Jolly
