Perhaps you are familiar with the Little Free Library concept. Or perhaps you are not. But I love the idea of it - and I love all the Little Free Libraries I see in town - or I read about in the LA Times - or see on the website. There was one near Hannah's place in DC, and Theo and Ida loved stopping and getting a book. There was one in their neighborhood in VA too - and I found a book I really enjoyed reading when I was there last summer. The possibilities are endless.
Harry and Dawn have one - and I confess I have coveted it! I guess I coveted it so well that they got the message and gave me my own Little Free Library for Christmas - Bonny was part of the gift too!
Now I am really excited to get it up and running - heaven knows I have plenty of books to spare!! I have the spot picked out - and Harry is on board - I just need to nudge him in the direction of getting it set up so I can start playing Madame Librarian!!
I plan to set it up on the curb north of our driveway - it's a barren little spot, so I feel that a bench would be in order too. I thought I had an old wrought iron bench behind the garage that could have been spruced up, but apparently in a fit of purging I got rid of it.
Oh well, now I'll just have to get a new one.
I also need to name my Little Free Library - Harry and Dawn's is "The Lemon Avenue Library." I'm thinking and brainstorming - suggestions are welcome.
Watch for updates!!
And stop by for a book if you're in town!
