We had such a fantastic time this week with our students at our "Book Tasting" event in the library! 📚✨ Our library transformed into a cozy cafe, complete with placemats and signs, where students got to "sample" a delightful array of books.

Just like a speed dating event, they moved from table to table, getting a taste of different genres and stories. It was wonderful to see them engaged, exploring new literary worlds, and finding their next great read! What a fun way to discover new books!
