There are now 11 Little Libraries in my township! The community absolutely supports our 2 branch libraries, but because of the pandemic and poor weather, these little beauties became lifesavers that brought new reading, new ideas and new Authors and Illustrators. I contributed several books I won as well and have great fun thinking of all the people reading them. If chosen I will distribute among these Little Libraries and am glad to post pics of delivery. I may keep a STEM book or two, but other than that, will share. Thanks for the consideration and can’t wait for the SHOW! Stay well.📚
What a wonderful opportunity! Looking forward to tuning in tomorrow!
