Another session helping Tang Hall Library raise some funds! While setting up the book sale, Amy appreciated some wise advice on How to Get your Teacher Ready for School, while Joanna found some Sweet treats and Jenna fell Hook, Line and Singer for a tuneful tome. Not sure what Lucy was thinking though...

Thursday 1st August 2024

Written by York runner

A hot evening saw two Goodgymers setting out the books for the Tang Hall Library monthly booksale, with a particular request to prioritise children's books for the holidays. The Vikings seemed to be a particularly strong theme, which is apt for the city of York!
