If you haven't heard yet, next year, we at this building will officially be housing the 6th grade! In preparation, Mrs. Darling has been sending over books from her library that she feels would be better suited for our middle schoolers and up. I'm happy to say that a large portion of what she sent were biography and autobiography's. Many of you have probably heard me say often, that our non-fiction section could really use some updating, so this is an extremely welcome addition. Below you'll find a list of our new (to us) books.
