Children's Books for Free
The primary goal of First Book is to work with existing literacy
programs to distribute new books to children who, for economic
reasons, have little or no access to books. First Book distributes
books to community-based programs serving children from low-income
families through our National Book Bank. The National Book Bank
provides a mechanism for publishers to make large donations to
First Book for distribution to children from low-income families
across the country periodically throughout the year.
