Welcome to the Library...I am very happy to be a part of the St. Ann's family. St. Ann's is a very special place and I hope that the library will continue to bring us together as a learning community.

Reading a book can take us to places we can only dream of, introduce us to friends of other cultures and finally bring the world of adventure and imagination to use in our own backyard.

My own girls have cherished the books they grew up with (The Kissing Hand was a favorite /mine too)and have helped them to grow into the young women they are today. 

Stop by the library and visit with us! We have already begun our road to adventure and ignited our imagination. We have lots to share with you!!

Thank you for allowing me to share the adventure with you and your child.
Smiles,
Mrs. Ortiz
