A Happy Ending

Isaac Fitzgerald bio ↓  ·  July 17th, 2010  ·  filed under books

A few days ago the Park Department of Chicago attempted to shut down Gabriel Levinson’s Book Bike, “a custom-built tricycle stocked with 200 lbs of free books” that is “responsible for placing over 3,000 new and used books into peoples’ hands.”

The attempt to keep Levinson out of Chicago’s parks had us worried. But thanks to a little help from the Chicago Public Library the story has a happy ending.
