Mary's Garden is a memorial to Mary Alice Graul, who was with us only for about eight years from 1961 to 1969, when she contracted Reye's Syndrome and passed away. This Little Free Library was one of two placed in Farmers Branch by Monica Fry as she worked towards her Gold Award for the Girl Scouts. It stands on an unfinished wooden post, and is itself made of wood, painted light yellow, with a sloped roof. Note the "bird hole" in the back, with the bird silhouette, as the Little Free Library was designed to look like a birdhouse to match the theme of Mary's Garden. The Little Free Library plaque is in a strange place, between the main body and where the top of the door connects to it, but the door closes just fine.
