Table Talk with Dee Lysak
This podcast, Table Talk with Dee Lysak, invites you to the eastern shores of Lake of the Woods with miles and miles of shoreline, ancient rock, and 14,522 islands. This is the Laurentian Plateau. Imagine yourself here, sitting with friends and family, around a kitchen table: listening. The stories are mine, to write and to tell. And, the tales - mostly fact, some fiction are centred around all that it means to be Canadian in an ever-changing world. The past will help us know where we came from and the present will ground us in our shared reality. I trust the words, all knitted together, will illustrate the world we live in. And, if we choose to act - individually or collectively: we can imagine and build an even better one. Life moves so quickly. Thank you for spending some unhurried minutes, with me - Dee Lysak.

In Episode 2 of TABLE TALK with Dee Lysak, we explore the early days and milestones of the global movement, that we know as LITTLE FREE LIBRARIES. In the small communities of Sioux Narrows and Nestor Falls, we have two "Book Trading Posts".
The book trading post in Sioux Narrows was designed and built by Jake Blosser. In Nestor Falls, a small group of community members came together - to design and build their version of a little free library. And, every time I see someone who is taking a book or leaving a book, I smile. I hope you enjoy this story and perhaps, more importantly I hope it inspires you to put up a little free library - somewhere soon!
