Today, Room 209 received a wonderful surprise... new books! Thanks to the generosity of Burlington families and friends who purchased books at the Barnes and Noble fundraiser earlier this year, 10 books from the Massachusetts Children's Book Award (MCBA) list were delivered to our room today.
It was wonderful to see the students crowding around the table, vying to be the first to read the new books. Many of our students have already read the five books required in order to vote in the spring for the MCBA winner and now continue to find the list a rich source of captivating books.
Thank you to Steve Levin, librarian at the Francis Wyman School, for organizing the Barnes and Noble fundraiser and fulfilling our "wish list!"
