Drop by the Little Free Library for a new book by Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT
We have all seen them – a pole topped with a mounted box, which may be plain or decorative, in front of a home, business, school or church. Open the box and you will find it filled with a variety of books. So what is the purpose of these boxes of books? They are Little Free Libraries, books to be shared with friends and neighbors in the community. Little Free Libraries began with a simple idea. Take a box full of books, mount the box on a pole and make all the books available for the taking. It is a way to share books that you have enjoyed with others. The first Little Free Library was built in 2009 with Todd Bol, a native of Hudson, Wisconsin, who was searching for a unique retirement gift for his mother. He was searching for a gift that would honor her years as a teacher and her love of books and reading. His thoughts led him to the idea of building the Little Free Library. He designed and constructed a small wooden house that resembled a miniature one-room schoolhouse. He mounted the little schoolhouse on a pole and placed it in the front lawn and filled it with books. The unique box was a curiosity and it did not take long for neighbors to gather around and inspect the contents and to take advantage of this book exchange, where they could share their favorite books. Take a book or leave a book the choice is yours. It also did not take long to see additional boxes on poles begin to appear in the neighborhood. Each was as unique as the person who created it. From simple square boxes to elegantly designed Victorian Mansions, the choice reflected both the artistic ability of the builder and his or her interests.
Enthusiasm for reading spread throughout the neighborhood as more neighbors built their own little box of books for neighbors to share and enjoy. When finished with the book, it can be passed onto a friend or returned to the Little Free Library for someone else to enjoy. The Little Free Library was officially incorporated by Bol and his friend Rick Brooks on May 16, 2012, and in the same year registered it as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission statement of “inspiring a love of reading, building community, and seeking creativity by fostering neighborhood book exchanges around the world.” Bol and his friends began making some of these libraries and giving them away along with a hand-crafted sign with official Little Free Library charter numbers. Looking to cover expenses to build more libraries, he enlisted the help of a carpenter, Henry Miller of rural Cashton, Wisconsin, who crafted these boxes using recycled wood from a 100-yearold barn that had been destroyed in a tornado. They began charging low fees to cover expenses. The demand for the libraries continued to grow and they continued to produce more boxes in various styles and sizes. People were free to purchase these boxes or to build their own libraries and then register them with Little Free Libraries and receive their official plaque. Today the nonprofit corporation offers a variety of book boxes for sale in a large range of prices. Some are kits to assemble while others are completely assembled. Bol and Brooks ran the company for a couple of years and watched it grow both in the United States and around the world. Brooks left the organization in 2014 but Bol continued until his death from pancreatic cancer in 2018. Bol, raised by a teacher, and went on to become a teacher himself, had a lot of respect for Andrew Carnegie, the philanthropist who at the turn of the 20th century funded the creation of 2509 free public libraries across the United States. On his website, Bol was quoted as saying that

fever, headache and body aches but serious illnesses, such as encephalitis, meningitis and death, are possible. Persons 60 and older have the highest risk of serious illness. There is no vaccine available for WNV. It is important to remember that the risk of WNV remains until the first hard frost. The best way to prevent WNV is to reduce the number of mosquito breeding sites around your home and to take personal precautions. • Empty standing water from containers around the house (tires, neglected swimming pools, bird baths, clogged gutters and buckets); make sure doors and windows have tight-fitting screens. • Limit outdoor activities when Culex mosquitoes are most active (dusk, dawn) and wear long sleeved shirts and long pants for extra protection. • Use and apply insect repellents per label directions: Insect repellents containing 20% or more DEET (less for children) are effective; insect repellents including oil of lemon eucalyptus or Picaridin may be used as an alternative to DEET; apply repellents per label directions. Consult with a doctor before using any repellent on infants. For more information on mosquitoes and West Nile Virus, visit the Division of Environmental Health’s website under Nuisance Control at www.mcdh. info or call 815-334-4585.

Illinois Wesleyan University announces spring Dean’s List
A mosquito batch collected from Wonder Lake tested positive for West Nile Virus (WNV) on August 10. A robin collected in unincorporated McHenry on July 22 also tested positive for WNV, but this is the first positive batch of mosquitoes in McHenry County for the 2020 season. There have been 5 WNV positive birds, 265 positive mosquito batches and zero reported human cases in Illinois so far this year, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). From May through October, the McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH) conducts WNV surveillance. Mosquito batch collections and testing are conducted weekly. In addition, the MCDH collects a limited number of dead birds for testing each mosquito season. Contact the Division of Environmental Health at 815-334-4585 if you find a dead crow, blue jay or other perching bird. Bird specimens must be in good condition in order to be tested (no signs of insects, obvious injury or decay). Avoid touching the dead animal with bare-hands, although there is no evidence WNV infection occurs this way. WNV is transmitted to humans predominantly through the bite of Culex mosquitoes, which is the primary vector for WNV transmission in Illinois. Illness from WNV is usually mild and includes

Two drive-thru microchipping, rabies clinics available in August The McHenry County Animal Control has scheduled two drive-thru microchipping and rabies clinics for cats and dogs in August. Illinois law now requires cats to be vaccinated against rabies. Pet registration is required by law in McHenry County and tags must be purchased at the time of vaccination. The cost for a rabies vaccination is $15 for one year and $30 for three years. Registration fees are additional and vary depending on factors such as if your pet is spayed or neutered. Microchipping a pet is $10. Pet owners must call ahead to schedule their visit for either August 25 between 11:30 a.m and 2:30 p.m. or August 27 between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. and must show up at their scheduled time to prevent unsafe conditions at the clinic. Social distancing measures will be in place during both clinics. Spots are limited but additional dates could be added if this event indicates there is a need. This event is only available for McHenry County residents, and pets must be leashed or in a carrier. Please do not bring animals that are in heat. Information about bite history or dogs that are easily stressed will be requested when making an appointment. Vaccinating pets is beneficial to both owners and their animals. More than 59,000 people worldwide die from rabies each year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). There is no cure for rabies and it is almost always fatal. Rabies vaccinations provide your pet with the best protection against this disease. Microchipping increases the odds of reuniting with lost or stolen pets. Only 22% of lost dogs that entered animal shelters were reunited with their families, according to a recent study from Petfinder. com. However, the return-to-owner rate for microchipped dogs was over 52%. Less than 2% of lost cats (in shelters) were reunited with their families. The return-to-owner rate for microchipped cats was dramatically higher, at over 38%. To keep your pets up to date, call 815-4596222 to reserve a spot at McHenry County Animal Control and Adoption Center, 100 N. Virginia Road in Crystal Lake, or visit MCDH.info for additional information.

On August 12, at approximately 1:20 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a traffic crash with injuries in a parking lot in the 26200 block of North Route 83, unincorporated Mundelein. Sheriff’s deputies arrived and located a 70-year-old female, of Waukegan, with critical injuries. Preliminary investigation shows the female was operating a 2009 Motofino Scooter. She was leaving the parking lot, when for an unknown reason, she drove slightly off the pavement. This caused her to fall off the scooter and strike her head on a railroad tie, which was acting as a barrier between the pavement and grass. The railroad tie had a spike protruding, which impaled the rider. The rider was transported to Advocate Condell Medical Center in Libertyville with critical injuries and remains in grave condition. The crash remains under investigation by the Lake County Sheriff’s Office Technical Crash Investigations Unit.

The Lake County Board recently voted to enact a modified emergency ordinance which temporarily allows open burning in unincorporated Lake County from sunrise to sunset on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. The ordinance is effective August 11 through October 14, 2020. An emergency ordinance had previously been in effect that temporarily banned open burning in the unincorporated areas at all times and on all days of the week due to COVID-19. In recognition of the upcoming landscape maintenance season as leaves begin to fall, Lake County is temporarily permitting open burning on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays from sunrise to sunset. Recreational fires that are no larger than 3’ x 3’ x 3’ used for warming, cooking, and other recreational purposes are still permitted on all days of the week. Burning garbage, refuse, or construction materials remains prohibited.

• Little Free Library he wished to accomplish the placement of 2510 Little Free Libraries, one more library than Carnegie, although he acknowledged that Carnegie had a more difficult challenge because of the cost of the Carnegie libraries. “The goal was reached in August 2012, a year and a half before our original target date. By January of 2014, the total number of registered Little Free Libraries in the world was conservatively estimated to be nearly 15,000 with thousands more being built,” Bol is quoted on the Little Free Library website. While many of the Little Free Libraries are found in front of individual homes and are created and maintained by the homeowners, others are projects created by school groups, scout groups, church groups and clubs. Many of the boxes are uniquely painted and decorated often by children who enjoy creating their very own look. Whoever licenses the Little Free Library becomes its steward and is responsible for its maintenance. The steward also has control of the types of books that they offer to share with others. They are expected to monitor the quality of books in their box. Children’s books are popular and are often seen in Little Free Libraries placed on or near school grounds while Little Free Library boxes placed in front of a church often contain books of a religious nature. The libraries placed on private family home properties usually contain both adult and children’s books to meet the reading needs of the whole family. Some will actually place two separate libraries next to each other – one tall and one shorter – to accommodate books at the right height to be reachable for children.

Local free libraries
Kathleen Betke of Johnsburg has registered her Little Free Library in that community. “This library is located in Hiller Park. Being a Little Free Library steward marks a check off my bucket list. Please visit,” she said on the Little Free Library World Map. Area clubs or school groups also donate these special libraries to the community. In the Grayslake area the Gagewood Lions Club, Gages Lake has donated several of the libraries. Many of these have been painted by school children for a unique look. While placing a Little Free Library on your property is generally not a problem, it doesn’t hurt to check with the local zoning board before doing so. There have been a few instances where zoning regulations needed to be amended to allow the structures. One such was in Kansas where a 9-year-old boy’s library was shut down because of a city ordinance that did not allow detached structures on the property. Fortunately the City Council unanimously approved a moratorium that allowed the Little Free Libraries to be placed on private properties thus furthering the growth of more Little Free Libraries in that community. Another community required the shutdown of a Little Free Library because the library was not in a commercial zone, the only place libraries were allowed in that community. There too the ruling was quickly amended to allow the library to continue. Today the libraries have surpassed 100,000 registered Little Free Libraries located in more than 100 countries worldwide. With so many community libraries in the area, occasionally someone will question the need for the Little
Free Libraries. For many of us, reading has been a part of our lives from our early days when parents and grandparents shared a variety of stories as they sat with us and read. These early stories brought the magic of fairy tales and knowledge of lands other than our own. So it is not surprising that books became an important part of our lives and for many of us reading continues to be a daily pleasure. While today reading is not only accomplished by reading printed books but also the use of digital readers. Many enjoy the digital readers especially for travel, but for some of us there is nothing like a “real” book. If you have books to share instead of leaving them to collect dust, consider placing a little free library in your yard and share them. An added benefit is you will become better acquainted with your neighbors. To learn more about Little Free Libraries, visit www. littlefreelibrary.org for information about building your own Little Free Library. They offer a variety of videos to help you in this task. Remember to register your library with the organization to receive your charter sign and the registration number for the library. There is a onetime charge of $40 to register the library if you don’t purchase the kit to make the box from them. Purchased kits include the registration plaque. To locate the Little Free Libraries near you visit the website and find the Little Free Library World Map. Insert your town, county or zip code to find the Little Free Libraries near you. Visit them to pick out the books you are looking forward to reading. And if you have a book to share, bring it with. Take a book and leave a book.
Right: This whimsical bookworm will bring a smile to any child’s face as he or she chooses a book. Below: This Little Free Library offers a place to sit and peruse the books available. On a nice summer or fall day what better activity to enjoy than to sit in the park and read.

It’s incredible to think that monarchs we see during late summer and early fall, weighing just about the weight of a paper clip, are able to travel all the way to Mexico and find their ancestor’s home for the winter.

A parent’s perspective Connecting kids with creatures brings the classroom home

CONTRIBUTOR
This is our second summer raising monarchs and it has proven to be an incredible learning experience and very rewarding to our family. My kids Madelyn, 6, and Levi, 3, love to care for the caterpillars, watch them grow, and finally release them as spectacular butterflies. Last year, we decided to start our monarch mission, after watching my mother-inlaw’s habitat thriving. At that time, we couldn’t even identify milkweed – the caterpillars’ lifeline – let alone knew it was growing plentiful right in our own Rochester backyard. This past May, as soon as milkweed popped up, we were on the hunt for tiny eggs laid. Fast forward to today and we have 11 healthy caterpillars, 10 hanging chrysalises and have released 40 butterflies. We will release our last monarchs, known as the migrators in early September, just in time for them to travel down to Mexico for the winter. Raising monarchs does take a bit of See PARENT’S PERSPECTIVE, Page 6 dedication. Every other morning, we venture
he sun is setting sooner, leaves are crisping, and back-to-school preparations are in full swing. As summer begins to wrap, experts and nature enthusiasts throughout the state are relishing the magnificent monarch migration. The annual migration begins in midAugust and continues into November. Brenna Jones, the state coordinator for the Wisconsin Monarch Collaborative, a consortium of organizations working to reverse the decline of monarchs and other pollinators across the state, said that as the migratory generation of monarchs are emerging, they will need a lot of fuel, (nectar) to make the journey south. Migratory monarchs fly up to 3,000 miles to reach their overwintering home in Mexico, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “Keep an eye out for roosts of dozens to hundreds of monarchs developing in trees when we start to get a few cool nights in a row in fall,” Jones advised. Monarchs that migrate from Wisconsin to Mexico, according to Jones, spend the winter in a unique microclimate high in oyamel fir trees in select locations in Mexico. “They return to these same locations year after year,” she said. Beginning around late February or early March, monarchs start to head north again and lay eggs in the southern United States. After they lay their eggs, the generation that migrated and overwintered in Mexico dies, and the next generation makes their way further north. Second and third generations continue this pattern, traveling as far north as Canada. Along the way, adult female monarchs look for different species of milkweed to lay their eggs on, and drink the nectar from a variety of wildflowers, Jones explained. “It’s incredible to think that monarchs we see during late summer and early fall, weighing just about the weight of a paper clip, are able to travel all the way to Mexico and find their ancestor’s home for the winter,” she said. Amazing metamorphosis For the Kormans (see related column) and the Schmidts in Waterford, watching
monarchs grow from egg to butterfly, from their home habitat, has been a bonding and educational experience. “We’ve watched friends do it for years,” Jodi Schmidt said, “and my kids are very into nature and learning how things change, so we decided to raise them too.” Jodi and kids Savannah, 6, Chase, 5, and Mackenzie, 2, venture out to hunt for monarch eggs at local parks and at one point, caught a new butterfly emerge from its chrysalis. “It was so beautiful to see,” she said. Their home habitat has given the family that same extraordinary experience three different times. They have 11 hungry caterpillars in different stages preparing for their own wings. Releasing the butterflies is special for the family. After their wings dry, they get a little meal of fruit and flowers. “Then we wish them well and send a secret message to a family member in heaven before we set them free,” Jodi said. Caring for caterpillars is something the kids take pride in, according to mom. Together they routinely switch out milkweed plants with fresh leaves and make sure their enclosure is tidy by cleaning the frass (monarch poop). Jodi said as their caterpillars grew, they quickly learned “we need more room for milkweed.” Monarch caterpillars feed exclusively on the leaves of milkweed. Therefore, milkweed is critical for the survival of monarchs. Without it, they cannot complete their life cycle and their populations decline. According to Jones, raising monarchs can be a fun way to watch and learn more about their transformation process. However, there are some drawbacks, including potential disease and genetics concerns. “The best way to help monarchs is to create a native prairie planting in your yard that includes a variety of flowering plants and milkweeds,” she said. A threatened population Breeding and overwintering habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change are all contributing factors to the declining monarch population. Jones said the USFWS has been petitioned to add monarchs to the federal endangered species list, with the listing decision to be made in December. According to the Xerces Society, the eastern migratory population has declined
See MONARCH BUTTERFLY, Page 6

(Continued from page 5)
by about 80 percent over the last 20 years. “The declining trend is not promising, but many conservationists are hopeful that, collectively, we can reverse this trend,” Jones said. She cited the Monarch Larva Monitoring Project, which collects milkweed and monarch data on from citizen scientists across the state, the numbers of eggs, larva and monarchs, which reported that this year’s population is very similar to this time last year across the state. However, there isn’t always a direct correlation between the amounts of monarchs observed during their breeding season and the official population counts that will occur on the overwintering sites in Mexico later in winter. A lot depends on weather conditions during the migration and overwintering periods, she said. Monarchs are an indicator for the health of an ecosystem and a charismatic representative of many invertebrates that have been declining, Jones said. “It’s important to continue to support organizations that are working to help pollinators and other declining species, continue to learn about and volunteer for these efforts, and lead by example within your local neighborhood and community,” she said. “If you create monarch habitat in your yard, you can put up a Monarch Waystation sign to advertise your efforts to neighbors,” Jones added. “If your company has extra land adjacent to or near the building, you could organize volunteer days to create and maintain habitat, which could also increase company morale. The important point is that anyone, despite their background or level of knowledge, is able to help in some small way.”
Be a butterfly’s best friend To help reverse the decline of monarch populations as well as other important pollinators, Wisconsin Monarch Collaborative Coordinator Brenna Jones suggests the following: • Create and maintain monarch-friendly habitat with native milkweed and nectar plants, or find a local organization focused on this to support or volunteer for; • Reduce pesticide use, which has the potential to kill monarchs, other pollinators, and the plants they need for food; • Avoid mowing milkweed when monarchs are present during the summer months; • Participate in monarch citizen science activities, such as the Monarch Larva Monitoring Project or Journey North; • Manage invasive species, which crowd out native plants; and • Be sure to plant a variety of native species that bloom from spring through the late fall, including milkweeds that are the only plants monarch caterpillars can eat. More information about where to find native seeds or plants, how to plant for your land type, and where to find further resources to support the planning, planting, and maintenance process can be found here: wiatri. net/Projects/Monarchs/ habitat.cfm.

• Parent’s perspective out to pick fresh milkweed for our hungry caterpillars. When raising monarchs, it’s critical that you have a milkweed source or don’t bother, because this is what they need to eat and grow. We’ve witnessed our caterpillars molt (shed their skin), form their chrysalis, and emerge from that chrysalis. When this amazing transformation happens, it’s quick, and each time we see it, we are in awe. The process from egg to monarch, we have learned, is about a month time, so overall that’s pretty quick to watch each growth stage. When the butterfly emerges from its chrysalis, it will stay with you and dry its wings for around four hours before taking flight. When we release each, we wish them well on their long journey and feel good about taking them under our figurative wings. My kids love the anticipation of learning
(Continued from page 5)
whether each new butterfly is male or female. We identify the males by the thinner veins and two black dots on the bottom of the wings, and females have thicker veins, with no dots. I’ve read that female monarchs lay 300 to 500 eggs in just a few weeks of its short, two- to six-weeks lifespan (migratory monarchs live longer). Though the end result is beautiful, we’ve been reminded through the months that there can be a cruel side to Mother Nature. After discovering the larger caterpillars were devouring our tiny ones, I quickly added a second habitat to separate the young and mature. Connecting with other monarch mamas has really helped. I participate on two different Facebook groups dedicated to sharing information and tips – “The Beautiful Monarch” and “Monarch Madness in Wisconsin.” Both are fantastic resources and since researchers say that less than
10% of eggs laid grow to be healthy butterflies, I see how these online communities are really helping the threatened population. If you appreciate monarchs, but don’t necessarily want to join the “Madness,” you can still help them repopulate just by making your backyard more butterfly friendly. It’s as simple as planting milkweed free of any pesticides. Where there is milkweed, monarchs will come. However, if you want the more intimate experience of watching them grow, then find yourself a habitat. We purchased our zipperenclosed, mesh habitat on Amazon for $10. Many local garden centers sell them as well. Then find your milkweed source, search for eggs on leaves and watch closely for activity. Once you spot a busy larva, begin the most important task of providing fresh milkweed a few times a week so they can eat and grow. But be
cautious of bringing in milkweed that may have been sprayed for pesticides. Pesticides will kill your caterpillars. We started out small and simple, and now have multiple habitats containing each cycle of the magnificent monarch all going on at once. The fun and intrigue is contagious too. Since we began our monarch mission, my mom, grandma, cousin, aunt and sisters all started habitats of their own. We love to share with one another the latest chrysalis that forms and the new wings fluttering so elegantly. Last year my household released about a dozen of these lovely creatures and at the end of this season, I am proud that we will have sent off five times that amount. With all the life-threatening obstacles this fragile insect faces in its short lifespan, it brings my family joy to contribute to such an incredible ecological system.
