for the explorer & the bibliophile

​​You’ve just arrived in the St. Thomas neighborhood of Kettle Creek Village. You start exploring some of the sites, like Jumbo the Elephant or the St. Thomas Elevated Park.

what is a little free library?

A Little Free Library is a “take a book, return a book” free book exchange. They come in many shapes and sizes, but the most common version is a small wooden box of books. Anyone may take a book or bring a book to share. Little Free Library book exchanges have a unique, personal touch. There is an understanding that real people are sharing their favorite books with their community; little libraries have been called “mini-town squares.” Learn more here.
