[ISLMA-Share] library in mural

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Our elementary school (PreK to 4) started with a blank white area with a
tree painted in the corner. Each year the 4th graders get to add something.
One year it was a sun made from their handprints. Another year it was a
silhouette of a girl reading that was actually a collage of black and white
photos of all of the 4th grade students. We also have leaves from
handprints, grass handprints and a boy jumping silhouette. The kids love
coming back to see their art and show younger siblings.
