20,000 BOOKS GIVEN OUT!
We gave out our 20,325th book this week at Bransford Elementary School. It was a great feeling. This is the school where we first started reading and giving out books. We now have a relationship with the children, families, and teachers at the school. We have helped build home libraries for the children and they are excited to pick up a new book each time we visit the school. We realized this week how important the support we've received from the school staff has been in encouraging My Own Book. We are working at developing more partnerships this summer so that we can read and give out books to more kids.
Want to read and give out books? Contact us at kyleandbrady@myownbook.net and we will help you get involved. You set up the event, we'll get you books and book plates!
