Take a Book, Return a Book

     I wonder how many of you have a Little Free Library in your neighborhood?  For some, I imagine that phrase Little Free Library is very familiar, while for others it probably comes across as new.  It's a grassroots movement whose mission is . . .

To promote literacy and the love of reading by building free book exchanges worldwide and to build a sense of community as we share skills, creativity and wisdom across generations.

    Well, at Woods we definitely share the mission of wanting to promote literacy and the love of reading.  We also believe in building a sense of community and in sharing skills, creativity, and wisdom across generations.  That's what inspired us to build and install our own book exchange on the first floor hallway.

     This bookcase was custom built for us by our own Amy Dowden, who, in addition to being a dynamic and dedicated teacher of chemistry, math, computer science, and physics, is also a very skilled and experienced woodworker with her own woodworking business.
