In which I ask my friends for help - Please boost the signal

 So I'm slowly putting the fiction collection back in proper order. I'm putting together an order for next year, to cover supplies and more books, but my budget is tiny, as are the budgets of most school libraries. There are definite gaps in the collection - not one copy of  If You Give A Mouse a Cookie, for example, except the big book edition with the little mouse and cookies, to use for lessons. It's on my purchase list.

But then, I think, I'm in the publishing world! I have friends who write picture books, who've PUBLISHED picture books. Who are publishers! Maybe, just MAYBE, my friends out there in the world can spare a copy of their books, to be put into a library where they will be loved and read and most definitely appreciated. So I'm turning to you. My school is early childhood - 3,4, and 5 year olds. Pre-K and K. If you've written a book for that age and can spare a copy, that would be great. Likewise, if you have gently used picture books that are no longer being read that you'd like to donate, I'll take them. And if you aren't able to help with books, can you please boost this signal? Any books can be send c/o Christine Norris, Early Childhood Development Center, 1602 Pine Street, Camden, NJ 08103 I have empty shelves and crying to be filled. An empty library is a sad library.
