Librarian's Choice - Where the Red Fern Grows

It was wonderful to see all the lovely entries into this challenge, and to read about so much affection for this book! 

Our Visiting Librarian, Deb (aka DJ)  has now returned to her own bookshelves, but before she left, we created a fabulous display for The Library walls.

Scrappyhorses  paid tribute to working dogs with her unusual card:

Lise's wonderful ink-blending and scene-building beautifully echo the cover:

A dog + red fern = the perfect card for the book, from Veanna .
