Danka Rauer's daughters have been keeping cool in their backyard sprinkler, but this morning, they headed to the Walnut West Branch of the Philadelphia Free Library.
Callina and Isabella joined dozens of other neighborhood children in the library's air-conditioned learning center for a presentation from the Philadelphia Museum of Art, followed by arts and crafts.
