JLG Back-to-School Book Bundle Giveaway!
**The Back-to-School Book Bundle Giveaways has ended. Don't miss the next giveaways! Make sure you subscribe to JLG Monthly and follow us on social (@JrLibraryGuild on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram).
There’s a certain buzz around this time of year, isn’t there? An excited hum of energy that tells us--ready or not--school will soon be back in session. At JLG, we fall in the “ready” camp. We’re those eager back-to-schoolers who love the feel of a clean-slate composition notebook, a freshly sharpened pencil and a brand-new book.
Something tells us you might be a lot like us… In that case, listen up--because we have a fun offer just for you.
