The Nancy and Joe McDonald Rainbow Library is about to contain
some brand new titles! They include some children's books, young adult
books, and multicultural books. Also, a growing focus is the
transgender and bisexuality sections. If you would like to be included
in this exciting time of growth for the Library, you can include the
Library in your regular Amazon shopping. I've made it easy: follow
this link to the Library's Amazon wish list http://amzn.com/w/1Y56ZOYRAQAZTand find a book there that you would like to donate. Send it directly
to me, and I will process it and place it in the library. Be sure to
visit your contribution to the library! Thanks for your continued
support. |
