This Week in the Library...

This week we've been enjoying two of our favorite book fair finds...

We've had SO much fun with these two books, and I am certain there are some families here at our school that get to hear the songs all evening long =)  sorry moms and dads, they are addicting!  You can get your free song HERE!

We LOVE Pete the Cat!

New Books!

Our Media Center was awarded a grant from our wonderful PTA of $500!  I was SO excited, that I immediately bought several new books from our "wish list!"  With this grant we were able to purchase 42  new, library bound books!  Since we've just opened this year, we are still working on our "collection" so some of our new titles might seem a little basic, but we are excited non-the-less...

Merry Christmas to us!

We are so incredibly thankful to a wonderful group of people at Educator's Mutual Insurance!  They "adopted" our Library this Christmas, and delivered BOXES of books for our students to read!  Can you believe it??  I was SO thrilled when I found out what they were doing!  Such wonderful people...






Can you see why we are so excited?  

THANK YOU EMI!!
