ART BOOKS!!!!!!!

.....and LOTS of them!!!! 
I've been using books in my classroom for quite sometime to help make the connection of art and literature.  However, at times some of these amazing books that I want to use are unavailable at many of the local libraries.  So, to better accommodate this, Halverson funded these AMAZING BOOKS for us! 

They keep coming in too!! I'll update you in the end with a picture of all! :)
