One of the nice family friendly features that has been added to our neighborhood is a Little Free Library. There are thousands throughout the world and scores in the Charlotte area. The idea is to take a book and, if you have one that you think others might enjoy reading, to leave one. No checking out. No one to ask.
This particular one has the added feature that across the street resides a Vietnamese potbellied pig. You will see signs attesting to it on the fence. If you are lucky you might see him roaming in the yard.
If you wish to take a book go right ahead; you do not have to return it.
