About me:

What We Do

First Book provides new books to children in need addressing one of the most important factors affecting illiteracy – access to books.

How We Do It

First Book has distributed more than 60 million new books to programs that serve children from low-income families through a growing network of programs, organizations, and schools.

Our publishing partners such as Random House, Simon & Schuster, and others, donate books to give to these programs.

Corporate and individual donors support and help us continue doing this important work. First Book’s business model is designed for maximum efficiency. Non-programmatic costs total less than 3% of revenue. As a result, every $1 donation to First Book results in $10 worth of new books directly into the hands of children in need.

How You Can Help

Small Change, Big Impact. This holiday season, help First Book get more books into the hands of children who need it most.
1. Give new books to children in need
2. Shop to support First Book
3. Register to receive books for your program

Thanks for the add! We love and value books in our home. As a former teacher, I know it's so crucial for children to have access to books and books they can call their own.
Hope you have a chance to check out my website:

I love helping children learn through play.
And parents can earn some extra income too!
