Free Books for Read Across America Day
Posted by Literacy Empowerment Foundation's Reading on January 26, 2015
The Reading Resource Project is an ongoing program that runs throughout the year. The program distributes high quality, softcover books for Read Across America Day, National Drop Everything and Read Day, Children’s Book Week, International Children’s Book Day, and other literacy programs.
These books are free. Recipients merely pay shipping, handling, and administrative costs, which is only $0.78 per softcover book ($78.00 per set of 100 books). Reading Resource Project books come in sets of 100 books per set. Any literacy based effort qualifies for these books. You do not have to be a school or teacher.
Reading levels are available for Pre-K through Third Grade. We also have Spanish collections. Each 100 book set consists of at least 10 different titles. Book selection and quantity is dependent upon availability, so there is no guarantee of specific titles. Books are sorted and shipped as close to a project’s needs as possible, with regard to reading level and topic.
Reading Resource Project books are available in a limited quantity on a first come, first served basis. Most sets are shipped within 2 weeks.
Deadline for Read Across America Day: February 15, 2015
