Jigsaw’s Read Your Mind
The Jigsaw Read Your Mind project offers a catalogue of book suggestions across 14 different topics. These cover things like anger, self-esteem and bullying. You can borrow these books for free at participating libraries. If your local library is not participating in the Read Your Mind project, you can still ask if they have a particular book. If they don’t have it in stock, they may be able to order it in. You can view the catalogue online or copies are available through Jigsaw in Dublin 15, South West, North Fingal, Offaly, Donegal, Limerick along with secondary schools, and community groups in the local areas. https://jigsawonline.ie/young-people/read-your-mind/
