The not-for-profit Little Free Library is a book program with locations in 88 countries, with over 75,000 registered Little Free Libraries.

For more than a decade, Sharalee Armitage Howard watched in dismay as the grand cottonwood tree in front of her Idaho home plopped ᴅᴇᴀᴅ branches on her flower gardens and sidewalk.

Then came the last straw: a large branch from the dying, 110-year-old tree тuмʙʟᴇᴅ oɴтo her son’s car, cᴀusιɴԍ several hundred dollars in damage.

It was time to cut it down before it тoᴘᴘʟᴇᴅ in a storm.

But Howard, a book lover who works at her local library in Coeur d’Alene, felt an attachment to the tree. She wanted to give it a new life. She had no idea her creation would not only become the talk of her neighborhood, it would fly across the Internet on social media, reaching people around the world.
