(Scholastic blogpost)
There are so many ways to get books into the hands of young readers. Readers who may not have their own books.
My friend Donna Gephart supports a great charity, Bess the Book.
I'm proud to have been a part of My Very Own Library, visiting schools in Newark NJ.
You can read about the schools who hosted me, HERE and HERE.

Thanks, Scholastic and My Very Own Library, for the amazing ways you get books into kids' hands. And if you're wondering whether books really make a difference, read all about it, HERE.
