Bio:
Thanks so much to all of the bookmooch users who have contributed books to the school so far! As of October 2008, we have received more than 200 books, which is a huge improvement to our small library.

The Chrysalis School is located in Madagascar, in a village just outside Antananarivo. The school opened in September 2006 with the mission to educate a new generation of open-minded young people who love reading.

Students range in age between 12 and 19, and the language of instruction is French, but students also study English.

For those who don't wish to pay for international postage to Madagascar, we also collect the books in the USA, and send them to the school when we can find people who are traveling to Madagascar.

The school's director made a special request for French comic books (Gaston, Asterix, etc.). If anyone has some old copies of these books they're ready to part with, we'd love to add them to our library.

Also, if anyone feels inclined to include a little souvenir from your city (like a postcard), I'm sure the kids would be interested to see where the books are coming from.
