Friends of Spring Branch Memorial Library will host its annual Plant and Book Festival, featuring a wide selection of books and plants, coupons for area businesses and children's activities on Friday, March 24, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday, March 25, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Library at 930 Corbindale Road, Houston, TX 77024.

Gently used children's books and adult fiction and nonfiction, from cooking and history to religion and the classics, will be available at bargain prices.

"The Friends of the Spring Branch Memorial Library Annual Book and Plant Festival is an opportunity for gardeners to put some spring color in their yards, for readers to find their next favorite book and for everyone to catch up with neighborhood friends while benefitting the wonderful community resource that is our local library," said Fran Serena, president of Friends of the Spring Branch Memorial Library.

Proceeds from the event are used to buy materials, such as e-books and children's books, and for summer programming and beautification of the library, which is part of the Harris County Library System.
