Happy Memories of the Centennial Children’s Library

"...it was at the Centennial Children’s Library where I learned English which helped me discover worlds outside of my own Chinatown sphere. It was the Centennial Children’s Library with friendly staff like Bernice who showed me the magic of storytelling through picture books and songs."

The first Chinese Gate to welcome visitors has been moved into storage to make way for the incoming LRT. Forty years later, my Chinatown has become a sweet, fond memory of our city; Edmonton is growing on without it.
