Soon a slightsandy?haired boy in jeans and a T?shirt appeared.“Do you have a job for me” he asked.

I told him about the Dewey Decimal System(杜威十进分类法) for shelving books.He picked up the idea immediately.Then I showed him a stack() of cards for long?overdue books that I was beginning to think had actually been returned but were misshelved with the wrong cards in them.He said“Is it kind of a detective job” I answered yesand he became working.

He had found three books with wrong cards by the time his teacher opened the door and announced“Time for break”He argued for finishing the finding jobshe made the case for fresh air.She won.

The next morninghe arrived early.“I want to finish these books”he said.At the end of the daywhen he asked to be a librarian on a regular basisit was easy to say yes.He worked untiringly.

After a few weeks I found a note on my deskinviting me to dinner at the boy’s home.At the end of a pleasant eveninghis mother announced that the family would be moving to a neighbouring school district.Her son’s first concernshe saidwas leaving the View Ridge library.“Who will find the lost books” he asked.

When the time cameI said an unwilling good?bye.I missed himbut not for long.A few days later he came back and joyfully announced“The librarian over there doesn’t let boys work in the library.My mother got me transferred back to View Ridge.My dad will drop me off on his way to work.And if he can’tI’ll walk
