My Project

Our junior high students love to hang out in the library at lunch time, especially when we do fun activities for events like Teen Read Week. This year, I'd like to provide extra materials and instruction for them to construct their own books by hand with special book-binding kits.

Please help our students get inspired in the library by making it possible for them to create their own handmade books as a fun, supplemental activity.

Options will include books with blank pages for any kind of writing or art, flip books, and comic-style books with picture panels.
