Despite not being able to hang with our neighbors like normal in the last year, we can still celebrate National Neighbor Day. Because being a good neighbor isn't always about face-to-face interactions. There are lots of ways to be a great neighbor! The PHIS library has TONS of books on how to make your world a little bit better place by volunteering and making other positive changes to the world around you. Because these books cover a large range of topics, your best bet is to come into the library and ask where they are shelved so you can browse and find a book full of ideas that will help you be the best neighbor ever!
Here's a bit of background on this day from NationalToday.com: Want to be the favorite person on your block? National Neighbor Day celebrates the importance of being a good neighbor while contributing to one’s community and each other. Relationships with neighbors can often lead to close friendships. Neighbors are almost like family. They’re close to you in more ways than one. That’s why National Neighbor Day, held annually on September 28, promotes good relationships between neighbors. As Mister Rogers would say, “Please won’t you be…my neighbor?”
