Why New Books?
“I want to extend my appreciation to Page Ahead for the beautiful books we received at Greenwood Elementary. I have never seen a collection of donated books that are as beautiful as these. Typically, donated or grant-funded books are paperback castoffs, often outdated, although the gift is always well intended. The books from Page Ahead are in beautiful, new condition, and each is timely and of interest to students. Our kids are going to be thrilled with their new books!”
Sincerely,
Ruthanne Rankin, Librarian
