We Need Some Kids’ Books!
We’ve noticed our Little Free (Back Alley) Library doesn’t have a lot of books for kids. We’re scouring garage sales and thrift stores for some, but in the meantime if you have any extra books kids might love that you don’t have room for anymore, please drop them off in the library at 109 Keystone Crescent in Leduc (in the alley, of course)!
