My Own Book Reaches Out to the Community

Here is one of the gingerbread houses on display at our public library- it is actually a scale model of the library! It is very cool. We had a big reading event/book giveaway on December 20th to show off all the gingerbread houses- check out our Reading is Sweet tab at www.myownbook.net for more pictures! We displayed over 35 gingerbread houses and then auctioned them off to get money to buy books. During the event we had girl scouts and the local high school leadership group reading aloud to children and helping them to select a book of their very own.

It was sweet!

On December 17th we are taking part in Bransford's Holiday Celebration by reading stories and distributing books. In addition we will be raffling off five - five foot tall teddy bears with bear books to the children. Toalk about making reading fun!

We are looking forward to this event because all of our local teen volunteers will be together for the first time since summer. We plan on having a Bear-y Nice event!
