Being able to read is a life necessity that teaches us, helps us grow, and can transport us into the wonderful world of imagination. Alas, many are either challenged with reading skills or with access to books. Our “Give A Book, Get A Smile” initiative aims to help ease these challenges, while offering authors the opportunity to expand the reach of their published works to readers beyond their home countries. Now collecting and donating books in Europe!
