Stacey Lantagne, local author and owner of Crafters on Central in Florence, has decided to generously donate a copy of each of her books in the Coping Crew series to our elementary library! We are very excited to share them with our students and allow them to check them out to share with their families as well! In addition, these books are an excellent resource to our Florence Elementary students who may be dealing with various fears, phobias, and anxieties. Stacey visited our elementary library during our Open House at the beginning of the year, and we plan to have her come and visit again soon! Thank you Stacey!
