Our litte library is in need of re-stocking!
Lots of people are taking books away to read or reading in the cafe but not making swaps.
If you have any good adult or children books that would benefit our community please pop them on the shelves 😊
At the moment it’s challenging to keep it fresh!! # # #

Enjoy!!xx

Our free little library sadly isn’t working very well. Lots of books are being borrowed which is amazing but sadly not many are coming back or being swapped so the shelves are very bare 😢. If anyone can make any donations of some good reads for adults,small children,bigger children or teens we would be very grateful.xx

I LOVE that my 2’s idea of a treat is a babychino & some books 📚
We’re getting really low on small & big kids books at the moment if anyone has any they can donate.
Not many swaps seem to be happening,just reading in the cafe.
🙏please help us keep it fresh for everyone by rotating some of your own.
Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his needs, is good for him. —Maya Angelou

Thanks so much for all the donations that have come into the library recently. Kids & bigger kids shelves have loads of new ones available.
Come & make some exchanges & maybe go & read in the sun by the waters edge ☺️
