Senior citizens in Worthington hope to inspire new readers with a little free library

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WSYX) — A group of senior citizens from The Bristol have created a free little library for children along the Olentangy River bike trail.

Together the group built and decorated a free library for kids to take books from as they please.

Two men from the senior living center used a kit to build the structure, while one of the other residents painted flowers along the outside.

The group hopes that the little library will inspire a new generation of readers, and offer children a fun escape into a new book.
