Michelle Washburn is always working to make the Whitman Elementary library a fun, creative, and imaginative space for students. Her incredible dragon artwork brings reading and stories to life! This new addition is named Dewey. After a few weeks of going over the Dewey Decimal System, they had a contest to name him and the overall response was "Dewey!"
