My meeting with the Mayor I was teaching the bible to a little group of children in a poor community. In order to attract children we make a “little party” every Saturday morning with food, drinks, balloons, and music for children. At the beginning 5 children came, later came more and more, after that they came with their mothers, and months later we ended up being 50 people in the “little party”. When Mothers Day came I wanted to give a special party for moms, I also wanted to invite another 50 moms, but how could I afford that? I could barely afford a little party each week!!! I called the Mayor of the city to schedule an appointment. He gave me the opportunity to talk with him because I told her secretary that I represent 50 families of this little poor community. When I met with the Mayor I told him how the little bible meetings grew. He smiled and told me he wanted to help me. He said “Please don’t hesitate to call me for help, whatever you need I will help you” So I did, the day after I sent him a letter asking for a huge cake, food, drinks, a hundred of presents for the moms, and invited him to the party. He sent me all that I needed. The Mayor never showed up but he showed his love for the children without knowing them.

THIS WAS A AWESOME NOTEBOOK ENTRY! 


"little" can be used as a quantifier of the amount of something, whereas "small" denotes the size of something. 

Also "small" is used to form comparatives, but "little" is just used as a description. 

For example: 

A small boy.  The reason the boy is small is because he is compared to taller boys.   

A little boy is just a boy which is small of size, but is not necessarily compared with other size boys.
