The School Library

David enjoys spending time in the school library. It is a quiet place where students can read, study, and borrow books. The library has many different kinds of books, including novels, science books, and history books.
Every afternoon after school, David goes to the library to do his homework. Sometimes he reads interesting stories or searches for information for his school projects. The librarian is very helpful and often recommends good books to students.
