Helping Kids Read

Some old friends

I love books and I love reading. I discovered books before I was in kindergarten and it's been a life long passion ever since. I recently found out about two programs that get books to underprivileged children so they can learn about the joy books can bring to their lives and to promote reading.

Here's one. http://www.imaginationlibrary.com/usa/howworks.php

I think this is an awesome idea and want to let as many people know about it as possible.

"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers."  ~Charles W. Eliot
