This is happening more and more lately.... ☹️
If you or your children are using the Library please make sure the doors are closed when you are finished.
Leaving them open means books can get wet, fall out or get damaged meaning I will need to throw them away! 🗑️

I love being able to offer a Street Library to our local community but need it to be respected so we can all continue to enjoy it. 📚

There are lots of fantastic newly donated reads and bookmarks currently available to check out currently ✨

There are some established Frangipani (white) branches propped up against the library for whoever would like to take them. The cut end has been dried so they are ready for planting into a pot or the ground. ✨

Wishing everyone the best of luck for the first day of school tomorrow! ✨
To help ease those first-day butterflies, I have handmade lucky clover keychains available for you and your little ones.
We also have plenty of trinkets and a wonderful collection of books waiting to be borrowed! 🍀

Library is currently well stocked, come and take a look!
I will be trialing trinket boxes soon in the library.
Please supervise when using the library, please do not take the boxes away or leave things in a mess.
If this is successful I aim to refill with donated trinkets as they come in.
Donations for the trinket boxes are very welcome ✨

Hey Churchill 👋
Having no power after the storm (and on a teacher strike day 🫶) totally sucks, hopefully Energex can get us up and running really soon!
In the meantime, The Crooked House Library has been restocked so you and the kids can enjoy some fantastic reads while you wait for your power to be restored!

Happy reading and keep safe, The Crooked House ✨

The Crooked House Library will be available during the library trails, however I will not be setting the tables up to put extra books out like I usually do. I will try and keep the Library as stocked as I can throughout this weather event. We lost one of our windmills last Sunday so I will take the other one down today!
Hope everyone has a safe, non damaging weekend ✨
