A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out to our pop-up book sale and petting zoo! Seeing so many families browsing books, and spending time together made the day so special.

Because of your support, we sold 19 boxes of children's books, an amazing milestone that helps get more great books into the hands of young readers. We couldn't have done it without our wonderful volunteers, and everyone who stopped by to support us.
