📚🔍 Students Needoh bring all library books back by Tuesday, May 19! 🔍📚
Missing a library book? It might be hiding in one of these sneaky spots:
🚗 In the car
🛏️ Under the bed
🧺 In a laundry basket
🎒 At the bottom of a backpack
🛋️ Between couch cushions
🏠 At Grandma’s house
📖 Mixed in with books at home
Take a quick “book hunt” around the house and help our library books find their way back home! 💛
