    Twins Elizabeth and Addison Baker, 10, of Toledo, watch Christine Kallevig as she tells a storigami during the 10th annual Claire's Day at the Maumee branch of the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library. The Book festival is named in honor of 10-year-old Claire Lynsey Rubini who died of a heart condition in 2001.
