WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Jackson Elementary School had a big celebration with a free book for every student.

Families can take a book or leave one. The non-profit works to keep it stocked.

“We go to all of our little free libraries and make sure they have plenty of books so we can keep that process of getting books out to the community a priority,” said Storytime Village Founder Dr. Prisca Barnes.

The students helped decorate the library box with happy faces.
