What a great idea! We have lots of spare seeds so look out for them turning up in the little free library over the next few weeks 🙂

Good ideas worth sharing... Building a weatherproof seed lending library (as you might for books) and see what takes root! We really can make a difference on back yard and one community at a time.

Our little free library has been re-weatherproofed today, after battling the elements here on the coast for over a year now! It's also had its paint touched up, been thoroughly cleaned and re-sealed on the inside, all new adults' books and a great selection of children's books restocked, along with a new poem and inspiring quote and question to encourage discussion, some winter Olympics bookmarks to colour and new treasures in the geocache :) A bit late maybe, but it's ready for a new year of sharing and encouraging reading great books!

A new wintry poem and some bookmarks to colour in placed in the library this evening. It's chockablock with children's books at the moment and lots of wintry themed novels for adults! Don't forget to find the hidden geocache as well....unless you're a Muggle...in which case ignore this last sentence.

Lots of Christmassy books in the library at the moment - don't forget to take a look! A lot of the children's books I put out for Christmas yesterday had been taken already today, it would be really lovely if once they've been read they could be replaced so we can keep it stocked with seasonal books in the run up to Christmas :) We're so delighted that the little free library is still being so well used after it's been there just over a year now!

I've not had time to post much on here recently, but rest assured the library is always fully stocked every day! We've got a great collection at the moment - some new and some that keep on being borrowed and returned. I've paused donations for the timebeing as we have been given some very generous donations which will keep us with plenty adult and young adult books for the near future. The one category we don't have many of is chapter books for younger readers, say age 8+ If you have any of those to donate please ignore the no donations sign and pop them through the letterbox!

My little helper and I refreshed the shelves this morning so take a look if you're passing - there may be something new that takes your fancy. As always message me if there's anything in particular you're looking for as I don't have space to put all our stock in the library - we have a lot of crime, easy reading, self development, historical fiction...a few from popular authors including Maeve Binchy, Jodi Piccoult, David Baldacci, etc. In children's books I have lots of Mr Men, Disney, Usborne phonics readers, Biff, Chip and Killer, folk and fairy tales and LOTS of picture books - let me know if your children have favourite authors or characters or genres! Happy reading this weekend everyone 💕

Huge thanks for the massive donation of children's books! I was trying to encourage our littlest to nap so didn't get to say thank you in person but please know that we are very grateful 💕 If anyone's children are enjoying using the library please do let me know what kind of books you would like to see more of - toddler and baby books, picture books, learning to read books, first chapter books, activity books, fact books...? Then we can make sure it is stocked with books that are going to encourage and appeal to our little readers, as we now have a great selection!
