Do you remember the frst time you entered the school library? Your frst book? Your frst read? We get emotional as we recall those times. It was a door opening, a journey begun, a dignity unfolding. It was sensory - the touch of a book, the smell of it, the way the words and pictures raced through our heart and minds as we read, and the sheer beauty of sitting in a wonderful and quiet library room. The school library has been a living character in the lives of urban and rural communities for over a hundred years. Our schools have educated, informed, and inspired generations of young and old, artists, politicians, teachers, writers, thought-leaders, athletes and dreamers. With almost 100,000 school libraries in America, Harry Moon has no greater mission than to reconnect the 21st centu-ry child with the magic of story and the library’s precious sanctuary of imagination.Why do welove schools?
