Well as winter comes to close, so does my Lost In London tour! Below are some highlights from the tour. You can check out the New Jersey portion of my tour here and here.
Country Day School of the Sacred Heart
Country Day School of the Sacred Heart in Bryn Mawr, PA welcomed me with open arms. They’re lucky to have an enthusiastic librarian who is very involved with the local book community! And their campus is absolutely gorg!
Holy Angels School
There was a very large group of students at Holy Angels School, and I was thrilled to find that the teachers were just as involved as the students!
All Saints Catholic School
The last stop on my tour was at All Saints Catholic School in Wilmington, DE. I met a super fun group of teachers and students, including a very impressive 8th grade student council president who introduced me to this lovely crowd.
Here are a few more pics from stops:
