My Project

As an elementary school librarian, I love to see students get excited about books! A library is an every changing place. As interests change over time, so do the books that kids love to read.

I would love to have more books for our younger readers in our Junior Fiction section of the Library.

The Junior Fiction section will contain some beginning chapter books with a few chapters and appeal to first and second graders. I would also like to refresh some of the classic books to encourage readers to check them out.
