It's not enough to just have a Little Library, you have to put solar power on top! It was during the day, so I couldn't see the light in operation, but I bet it looks great at night. Check out the cute hardware on this box. Somebody is really creative! The day that I visited, this little library was jam-packed with all kinds of books. Thank you for being so thoughtful! This is really a great asset for your community. Thank you for building this Little Free Library.

"Comes with Free Labyrinth!"…read more Yes it's true! With this little Free Library, you get a bonus Labyrinth! This little Free Library is constructed to look like a little white country church. It is on the grounds of this church, pretty close to their labyrinth, in a beautiful garden setting. What a location!

If you don't find the book that you want, take a spin around the Labyrinth. Thanks to the folks from this church for sitting up such a beautiful garden and free little Free Library. This is really a great asset to your community.

Obviously it's an ever changing selection but the day I stopped by there were boxed puzzles in all sizes. Some people will mark if the puzzle is complete or how many pieces are missing. I dropped off some brand new unopened boxes, so get them while you can.

I often even donate many of my own books that I want to pass on to the community. It has a roof, beautiful red doors, and a height appropriate kids section (my favorite addition since I started visiting). If you live in the area I highly recommend visiting it on your next walk around the neighborhood - and even if you don't I think this Little Free Library warrants a visit. Maybe I'll see you there!

They donate their time and skill to help their neighbors, so that other people can have these fun little boxes. On a hot day in summer, I had a opportunity to see some of these little Community book boxes, and also chat with the people who created them. The construction on most is similar. The craftsman explained that he tries to get two boxes out of one big piece of plywood. Then, his wife decorates them. This cute blue and white box is a good example of their work. It's well-constructed and looks like a little house! The day that I visited it was also jam-packed with books. If you get a chance walk around Park Avenue and check out the other boxes. Don't forget to go around the corner to the right and check out the Cat in the Hat Library box.
