The Basketful Relief Project loves our local Lyons community and especially our new Regional Public Library, established in 2019.
The Lyons Regional Library is a member of AspenCat Union Catalog. This collaboration allows resource sharing with more than 115 other Colorado libraries with access to over 1 million items.
All of the Basketful Relief Project books can be found on the shelves in the children’s section in the Lyons Library, and are part of the AspenCat collection. We are thrilled to be a part of the Colorado library family and in turn wish to promote favorite children’s books that can be found in the AspentCat’s Award Winners – Children.
This month, we are highlighting the following award winning children’s books:

When a wolf cub and little girl are lost in a snowstorm they must find their way home.
