International Book Giving Day February 14th 2016
- Feb
- 14
Kindly designed by Ben Newman, his vibrant and contemporary style is just perfect for celebrating this annual event.
There are three simple ways to celebrate this occasion!
1. Give a Book to a Friend or Relative.
Celebrate International Book Giving Day by giving a someone a new or used book.
2. Leave a Book in Somewhere to be Found!
Choose a waiting room where kids are stuck waiting and there are few or no good books available. Purchase a good book, and deposit your book covertly or overtly somewhere of choice. The goal here is to spread the love of reading to kids, so choose a fun book, nothing controversial.
3. Donate a Book.
Wrap up a box of children’s books that your children have outgrown and get them in the hands of children who could really use a book or two. Donate your books to your local charity shop, library, children’s hospital, or shelter. Alternatively, donate your books to an organization working internationally to get books in the hands of kids, such as Books for Africa.
Book marks, book plates and posters can be downloaded from their website: http://bookgivingday.com/blog/about-2/
