A New Book Van--Help us get stories back on the road!

Our book van used to roll through the South Sound delivering free books, big smiles, and a little bit of magic to kids and families. After it was vandalized beyond repair, we’ve been making do with our own cars—but we miss the magic.

Chip in to help us bring a new book van to life and keep great books rolling into the hands of young readers!

Donations help support our operations and enable us to offer more programs.

Your tax deductible charitable donation will go directly to helping fund our programs. We also gladly accept gently used children's books.
