The Big White Farmhouse

intentional living, little by little

{giving} Read a Book, Give a Book

My kids love to read.  LOVE.  And while we have a pretty nice selection at home, they really like to discover books for the first time.  Thank goodness for the library and this great website: We Give Books! 

Here is how the website works: “We Give Books is a free website that enables anyone with access to the Internet to put books in the hands of children who don’t have them, simply by reading online. Simply choose the charity you want to read for and then select the books you want to read. For each book you read online, we donate a book to a leading literacy group on your behalf. The more you read, the more we give.”

I love that while my children are reading, we are helping others to read as well.  So Mammas, get started!  Here are a few we are hoping to read this week:

  • Animal Hide and Seek
  • Snowmen at Night
  • Cordoroy Lost and Found
  • Wink! The Ninja who Wanted to be Noticed
