Abby loved to read. The library was her place. Today we had the honor of dedicating a section of the Latimer Lane Elementary School library to Abby. The section includes books she escaped into and stories she treasured, from kindergarten through 6th grade. Our hope is that Latimer students cherish these books too and that, when they ask about Abby, they are told about a strong, confident girl who really loved to read ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ Thank you Mike Luzietti, Kristen Brighenti and the entire Latimer staff for making this vision a reality.
