Every Tuesday morning, a big blue bus stops near the school in a small town in the south of Israel. It is not a normal bus. Inside, there are no seats. Instead, there are more than two thousand books, four computers and a small table for young children.

The library bus started in 2019. The idea came from Rina Levi, a teacher who lives in the town. "Our town has no library," she explains. "The nearest one is forty minutes away by car, and many families don't have a car." Rina wrote letters to the city and to some companies. After two years, they gave her money for an old bus, and a group of parents painted it blue.

Today, the bus visits five towns and villages every week. Children can take three books for two weeks. Older people come too. Some of them ask the volunteers to help them use the computers, for example to send emails to their grandchildren.

The bus has one big problem: it is old, and last winter it broke down twice. Rina is now looking for money for a new one. "Books change lives," she says. "Every child should be able to read a good book, even in a small town."
