Spring Book Fair Results

The library now has $1,200 to spend on books, magazines, supplies, and other materials thanks to all the families who made purchases at the bookfair. We can't wait to buy RICBA 2013 nominees, more graphic novels, nonfiction about topics on which the kids haven't been able to find information, and some fantastic new stories like The One and Only Ivan.

Nothing sold as well as Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Cabin Fever did back in the fall ... we sold 86 copies of that! But there were definite favorites this time around, including Big Nate, Bad Kitty, Flutter, The Loser List, Glory Be, Eye Bogglers, and, of course, The Guinness Book of World Records. 

 

Thank You, Volunteers!!!

Our spring book fair was a success, and we couldn’t have done it without our volunteers. A million thanks to:
