Weeding and New Section

Yesterday we weeded (got rid of) old books from the Arts section. There were some interesting books in there from when our school was a Junior High. Take a look:

 

Don't you feel the need to make a mobile or maybe some decoupage? Who even knows what those things are these days? 

Also, we have added a new section- the Everybody section! This morning I put together the new shelf, and by this afternoon, all of the books were on it. Hopefully we will be able to see our picture books better this way.
