Stop By a Little Free Library

Submitted by Alison Reynolds

Is there anything more precious than a Little Free Library book-sharing box? Well, yes, there are probably many things as precious. But, I know how happy I get when I stumble across one of the small wooden, birdhouse-looking outposts bursting with well-loved books for trading.

And I bet you may not know just how many of these delightful mini-libraries dot our neighborhood. A few in the immediate area can be found near:

• Shirkmere near Pineshade (Section 6)

• Linton near Queenswood (Section 5)

• Shelterwood near Drane (Section 5)

• Lindyann near Foxwood (Section 8)

For more nearby Little Free Library locations in the 77008 area, visit www.littlefreelibrary.org and peruse the searchable map! You’ll also find design plans for building your own library box, and be sure to register your location so your library can be added to the roster.
