We installed our Little Free Library last week, and I couldn’t be happier. The library box started getting action almost immediately – the first fifteen books I put into it are almost all gone and have been replaced by people who stop by. The plaque on the top of the box encourages neighbors to:
Take A Book – Return A Book.
Here it is, standing just back of the sidewalk in the front corner of our yard. 
When I first posted about it on Facebook a lot of friends wanted to know where I got it. Here is the Little Free Library website. It offers several different models and many kinds of plaques and accessories. It also provided instructions for making a stand, which our handyman easily and quickly built for us. Here are the Little Free Library site’s own words on their wonderful invention. Once you visit the website you’ll find out the possibilities for its look and use are endless. Plus I think it’s a great way to promote reading – imagine a place to borrow a book right in your neighborhood.
What is a Little Free Library?
It’s a take a book, return a book gathering place where neighbors share their favorite literature and stories. In its most basic form, a Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick up a book (or two) and bring back another book to share. You can, too!
