Once Howard Bryant found out that Mary Ann Elguezabal's class needed snacks, he began sharing his treasures. The students in Mrs. Elguezabal's class were delighted with all the fruit, vegetables and crackers that Howard sent. Among their favorites were the dried prunes. They loved the prunes even better than the ice cream. The second time Howard sent prunes, one of the children said, “I love Howard!” The snacks he sent helped the children expand their choices of healthy snacks. The students were so happy to meet Howard and let him know they appreciated him.
