Guthrie, OKLAHOM – Oklahomans continue to help those affected by tornadoes more than one month since the destruction occurred.

Businesses in downtown Edmond are collecting books for children at Peppers Ranch, a foster care community near Guthrie.

The community's children's learning center was damaged in the storms, and most of the books were blown away.

About a dozen businesses have collected nearly 20 boxes of books since the tornadoes.

Business owners say they will continue collecting books until they are told to stop.
