Welcome to the Axton Elementary School Library with Mrs. Rising! 

I'm so excited to be the librarian at AES! I have taught students English and science in sixth grade, and I've also taught all subjects in fourth grade. I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 16 years, and we have an amazing, twelve-year-old daughter that keeps us on our toes! I, of course, love to read all kinds of books, but my favorites are picture books and dystopian novels with a little bit of science fiction! I also love to sing, dance, scrapbook, and go to Disney World as often as I can! We are going to have a great time in the library telling stories, doing STEM activities, and getting to know each other through books!
