We have received word from Laurie May that she has opened a, “Little Free Library,” on Hartford Ave. in Sound View, Old Lyme.
This is one of many such libraries all over the country and represents a concept embraced in a number of other countries throughout the world.
It follows a, “Take a Book”, “Leave a Book,” philosophy and is stocked with adult books, children’s books and magazines. It has already been used numerous times since its ribbon-cutting opening last Saturday, June 21.
The library is delightfully decorated with handprints from May’s grandchildren’s and dedicated to her mother-in-law Lee Tricarico, who recently passed away and used to, “read a book a day.”
The neighborhood is loving this little library …thanks for all the compliments and well wishes…and come and get your books …we have plenty!!!
Laurie – what a beautiful way to remember Lee. So proud of your continuous creativity and thoughtfulness.
A big fan, Karen
