A little read about little libraries as we leave behind this year.

"Somehow leaving something behind has led to discovering many things I did not realize were so close."

p.s. Thanks to everyone who leaves books in the little library - no matter what your pandemic wardrobe consists of - we promise we aren't judging from our window!

For anyone braving the weather this year, you deserve books AND candy. We'll have mini comics and candy for the kiddos tonight (at the house, not in the little library).
