Tim and I were watching the news recently. Lately it seems there is no good news to be had, but this one night there was a story about how Little Free Libraries are sprouting up in communities across the U.S. It was a feel good story and it has inspired us to give this "Take a Book~Leave a Book" idea a try. I know we are in the age of Kindle and the Nook and the internet but to me there is nothing like holding a book in your hand..the feel of the book, the smell of a book...ahhhh I LOVE books!
We plan on building a little box to house the books but for now we have this box....so stop by the Brickhouse and Take a Book and Leave a Book!

Bravo! Our YWCO has one of these...it is a great way to share!
What a great idea! Maybe we'll do the same here in Michigan. Wouldn't it be great if many shops would get on board? Thanks for sharing, Dawn
Such a fun idea! My version of this is to leave books at the laundromat for others to find and take home if they wish. But I LOVE your idea!
What a nice idea Patti! Wish I would take the time to read!!! Can't remember the last time I read a book!
Hi Patti, I saw the same story on TV--a great idea--bravo for putting it into action! When I was a kid there was nothing like bringing a stack of books home from the library and getting lost in them...the black stallion series, The Bobbsey twins,the little house on the prairie and LOTS more!! LOVE books!!:)-Jan
