Each year, the Rachel Branagan Educational Foundation donates a collection of newly published books to local public elementary schools. Last month, we delivered a wonderful collection of books to ten local schools.

This year's selection included "A Year in New England" by local author Diana Treichler, "Before the Ever After" by Jacqueline Woodson - winner of the Coretta Scott Kina Award, "The Cat Man of Aleppo" by Latham and Shamsi-Basha (Caldecott Honor), "We Dream of Space" by Erin Estrada Kelly (Newberry Honor) and "Starfish" by Lisa Flips which is a Newberry contender for next year!

We hope the children of our local elementary schools enjoy the books!
