Impact Grant Wrap-Up






In the summer, I applied and was awarded a Little Free Library through the Impact Grant.
Little Free Library Blog Post

In November, Mrs. Barboni (our principal) finished painting the Little Free Library and the maintenance staff found a great place to mount the Little Free Library box.

In early January, Scholastic chose this Little Free Library to receive a donation of 400 books.

On Friday, March 10th, I completed the last piece for my Impact Grant...a community reading celebration.

The library hosted three local guest authors during the PTO Ice Cream Social/Art Show.

Mrs. Tina Curtis read her "Cat in a Basket" and talked about how she made the illustrations.
See my post from October - Author Feature

Mrs. Hillary Barboni read both stories that she wrote "My Lucky Penny" and "Joshua Finds a Home".  The library was a packed house each time.  Author Feature

Mrs. Brittany Atkins came to read her newest book as well.  I have not done a feature author story on her book YET!  Her first book is available on Amazon.  Look What We Can Do
