My Project

Preschoolers have unique needs in the library. They need book shelving at a lower height they can reach. They need forward-facing book displays so they can see the book covers and find a book that piques their interest as they learn how to select books for themselves in the library. Lastly, they need a special place where preschool books are kept to keep selecting a library book that is fun and easy as they learn to navigate the library.

This wooden book display is perfect for preschoolers with its forward-facing shelves, low height, and multiple shelves to display lots of preschool books in one place!

This wooden book display will help my preschool students enjoy selecting a library book even more by making it easy and fun! Thank you for considering my preschool project.
