It is actually in front of someone's house and they get lots of donations and restock very often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316917 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 15:32:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2316917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The local charter high school started this and I saw several of them around our town! It's a cute idea. They're little mailboxes filled with 10-20 books each. We haven't really utilized it yet but I should, there is one at the park behind our house and I have several books we could exchange too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316910 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 15:27:08 +0000 travellingbee 2316910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the heights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316829 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 13:41:54 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2316829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: what park? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316721 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 12:42:14 +0000 littlejoy 2316721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Caly: Oh man! That is cute!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316700 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 12:27:04 +0000 Caly 2316700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: the one a couple doors down from us was built to look like a mini version of their house. It's really cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316679 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 12:06:10 +0000 littlejoy 2316679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Portland has these all over. It's mostly just people who build little book boxes, and fill them with books, and a note to share. It's really great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316508 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:47:15 +0000 travellingbee 2316508@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have something like that at a local park but all the books have been taken so it is always empty. :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316501 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:41:11 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 2316501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a huge overload of these in my area. Most I have checked out are very sparse or filled with religious propaganda. I think they are a fabulous idea in theory, but I think their success really depends on the exact location. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2316487 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:17:29 +0000 Caly 2316487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have one a couple doors down from our house. I looked in it the other day and happened to see the book I'd just ordered from Amazon inside! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313530 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 10:45:04 +0000 petunia354 2313530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a bunch in our neighborhood, I love the idea!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313525 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 10:37:44 +0000 Corduroy 2313525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There's one a few houses down. It's jam packed with adult books. My mom found a Tangled book for LO but there's no room to leave anything else. Lots of kids in the neighborhood so I hope some space frees up for kids books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313511 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 10:23:33 +0000 MaisyMay 2313511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is one a few blocks from us but it has a very small selection. When I think of it, I try to leave a few of LO'S books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313498 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 10:05:14 +0000 yin 2313498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are a few in my city and one located a few houses down the street from me. They mostly have books for adults but occasionally we see books for kids. I think it's pretty neat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313456 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 09:27:52 +0000 looch 2313456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to put one on our front lawn. I am not sure if we need a permit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313377 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 08:43:11 +0000 birdofafeather 2313377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've seen. Few but while driving. A tour next home, it's one of the things I plan to build! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313350 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 08:21:45 +0000 fancyfunction 2313350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I saw one at a local park this summer and thought it was a really fun idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313306 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 07:43:39 +0000 Greentea 2313306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: YES! They are all over my city, pretty much every block. It started here :) They are awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313302 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 07:41:26 +0000 BandDmommy 2313302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: we have one in our neighborhood. It's cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-free-library#post-2313293 Thu, 08 Oct 2015 07:34:43 +0000 Bao 2313293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone heard of the little free library before? We just got one here at our local park, you can take a book or leave a book or both. Ours has books for kids up to YA I believe. It's a really cool concept, we will likely try it out someday but haven't just yet. </p>
