For low-income families, reading books and eating healthy during the summer can be out of reach. Furthermore, there is a well-documented connection between good nutrition and children’s ability to do well in school. To reinforce this connection in the minds of parents and children, this year’s book selections will encourage healthy eating.
Donate to our book drive and ignite the joy of reading and eating nutritious foods - reinforcing two positive habits at once!
