What kind of life can you have in a house without books? Sherman Alexie
A house without books is certainly not one I would want and parents and grandparents who do not read to their children are not people I understand.
Digging the hole for the post.
Little Free Libraries are found all over the world and having seen them in various locations in our province, I wanted one. Seeing and reading about the one in Green’s Harbour, Trinty Bay closed the deal for me. Thankfully my husband agree to make me one and because the ground was frozen, it had to wait until this week to be erected.
This is now extra special because two of our grandchildren are here and helped us with the set up.

I am blessed in that even though my grandchildren love their devices, they are avid readers.

I am thrilled that two people have already stopped by to get books and another left some books.
Fill your house with stacks of books, in all the crannies and all the nooks. Dr. Seuss
The sign reads “Take a book, leave a book”, but if you don’t have one to leave, please feel free to take one and….. spread the word.

Great idea. It is wonderful to share books and have the kids involved!
