Lake Forest Library

We're sending big waves to all our big readers in the making! 👋🌊🐬 Congratulations to everyone starting, continuing, and finishing their 1000 Books Before Kindergarten journey!

Meet the Fleet with you all last Friday was a blast! Thanks for stopping by the Library table. We hope to see you again soon, this time at the Library itself. Plus, we hope you're enjoying our construction-themed Summer Reading: READ LOADS! 🚛📚 It's not too late to start 😉
