Second Hand Books:
Calling all bookworms and clutter conquerors! The Micklefield Market is just around the corner, and we need your help to build a mountain of magnificent reads!
There’s a class competition brewing, and the prize is bragging rights for a whole year! To join the book bonanza, we have 9 big boxes, each clearly labeled with a grade level (Grade 0, Grade 1, etc.) for you to drop off any books you would like to donate.
Here’s the plan: you can drop off the books in their designated class box at the back of the hall.
So, dust off those beloved stories, clear your shelves, and help us create a literary wonderland at the Micklefield Market! Let’s get reading (and donating)!
