It's always fun to see a Little Free Library "out in the wild!" I love to spot them, browse their selection, leave a book if possible, and then look them up on the official website, because sometimes they have interesting stories to go along with them! There's also an app you can download to find local Little Free Libraries where you can even "check in" to keep track of the ones you've visited! Here are some of the Little Free Libraries we found on our summer trip to Cape Cod!
#195175 - Here's the story: "Visit our Free Little Library and the beautiful campus of Saint Barnabas's Episcopal Church in Falmouth. A bench is provided by the library for you to sit and relax. The campus of StB's has a labyrinth, memorial garden, church, chapel and playground for all to enjoy."
#63092 - How awesome is that door? I love the intricate design!
#183512 - This is the Gifford Street Little Free Library - so cute!
#101112 - Here's the story of the King Street Little Free Library: "In time of the pandemic, our wonderful Falmouth Town Library was closed. So we started this little library as a way our neighborhood could compensate for the loss of the Main Library! Now we libraries under assault in much of the country we stand proudly with the Big Free Libraries!!"
#1108 - I actually walked right past this one before I opened the app and saw it! Check out this story: "Located in the heart of Oak Bluffs on the island of Martha's Vineyard, this Little Free Library is kept and curated by the Oak Bluffs Public Library, which is about a five-minute walk away. Take a book, leave a book, and come visit the library for even more great *free* books!" I love that we were able to find one on the island of Martha's Vineyard!
And here are some unregistered ones my husband and brother-in-law came across and sent me pictures of!
So many adorable ones! I love the one with the really neat door and the last door with the cat - very Cape Cod/New England looking.
ReplyDeleteRight? I love the mix of the wood and the stained glass-looking door.
DeleteI like the ones that have the stories. Some interesting stuff.
ReplyDeleteMe, too! It's always nice when they have special meaning.
DeleteAngela, these are really wonderful! I love coming across a 'little free library'. And, yes, the doors of many of them are really unique and pretty. Thanks for sharing this with us!
ReplyDeleteYou're so welcome, Kay!
DeleteThese are so cute! My boxing gym just got an LFL, but it's literally just a plastic crate on a desk by the front door. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL, well, it's something!
