What a fun day at Vilas and Alstead Primary School! On Tuesday, thanks to the Rural Libraries Grant from the Children's Literacy Foundation, we welcomed author/illustrator Marv Klassen-Landis for a morning of fun storytelling. All children PreK4-6th grade in the Alstead Attendance Area got to pick out 2, free, new books to keep! We are so very lucky! A special thank you to the Children's Literacy Foundation!
