How to use radio wave receiver:

Great work at finding all the cellphones! I took them because the people of our town are reading less and less and staring at their screens more and more. Not only have screens taken over, but it seems that very few people understand how their devices work! The library is an amazing place to learn about technology, communication, waves, and more. The library is also an amazing place to get books that will take you on incredible adventures! Please spread the word to everyone in the town. Reading is fun and helps you understand the world! Sincerely, The Librarian
