You might also choose to read Mary Pipher’s new memoir called, A Life in Light, or reflections on time spent fishing in Casting Onward: Adventures in Search of America’s Native Gamefish, by Steve Ramirez.

The Board of Trustees for the Fairfax Community Library is planning a Literacy Outreach project aimed at children ages 3-5 and their families. Our goal is support families with preschool aged children by offering literacy materials, activities, and strategies to support learning at home. We have reached out to several Early Childhood Education programs, Preschools and Daycare Centers in Fairfax. If your child is not attending a program that has received this information, we want to make sure you are able to participate in this project. For more information, please contact Lisa Griswold at grisvt15@gmail.com.
Thank you!
