Why Summer Reading Packs?
Small At-Home Libraries are a Start. “Even a Few Books Have a Significant Impact. Having as few as 20 books in the home still has a significant impact on propelling a child to a higher level of education, and the more books you add, the greater the benefit.” Books in the home are as important as parents’ education level.
