As we reflect on 2022, the word that comes to mind As we reflect on 2022, the word that comes to mind is “grateful”. 

We are grateful for a community that donates their books to new owners and volunteers their time to help us operate. We’re grateful for the school staff and community partners we work alongside to get our books in the arms of kids who otherwise would have nothing fun and age-appropriate to read at home.
