Thanks to staff from My Block, My Hood, My City & Bears Huddle volunteers for helping mulch and clean up Douglass Park last week.

Last month, I had the chance to meeting the Chairman of the Bears, and I took the opportunity to ask him for a book recommendation. He suggested 'Wisdom of the Bullfrog,' and I've just placed an order for it.

Has anyone here had the chance to read this book?
