If for any reason your child selects a library book that is not appropriate, please let me know and we will send another book home. Books are due every other time, as we do book lessons and book exchange one session, then the next time I see your child, we have tech time in the computer lab. Parents are welcome to stop by and look for books to read at home or for special events such as scouting.
