A Little Girl Donated Her Favorite Rock to a Museum and the Museum Put It on Display

Atlas Obscura brings us this heartwarming story from the Poole Museum in Poole, Dorset, UK. This is a local history museum, so it’s very appropriate that local residents would like to contribute to it. Two years ago, 9-year old Bethan did.

This young girl was visiting and was deeply impressed with what she saw. Look at the featured works from the museum and you can see why. Poole has a long history and, for a small town, an impressively endowed museum collection.

Bethan wanted to contribute and so donated her favorite rock. The curators placed this rock on display, so visitors can now see it when visiting.
