At the 7-ELEVEN on the corner, the familiar “ding-dong” of the door rings out.
“Welcome! What would you like to drink today?” the friendly store clerk greets you.
“Come sit here! I saved you a seat.” An older customer and a friend happily chat together.
7-ELEVEN is like the warmest neighbor on the corner!
People from all walks of life, each with their own way of living, can find a comfortable corner to stay awhile in this brightly lit store. Take a closer look at the picture book and see who has come to sit for a while today.
