Book Drive
Why a new book? Because Page Ahead serves children who receive free lunches, live in subsidized housing, receive English-language tutoring, or read below grade level, a new book is a gift that is chosen, kept, and treasured. A new book tells a child, "You are valuable." A new book feels good in the hands. A new book is a prized possession. Children are more likely to learn about responsibility if they find value in their possessions. A new book encourages reading and heightens a sense of anticipation about receiving another book. Thank you for supporting Page Ahead!
In addition to the books below, please also consider donating picture books in Spanish.
