"Begin With A Book" is a campaign inviting viewers to donate new and gently used children's books to encourage reading by giving opportunity for kids to have a book of their own and to have reading resources as part of their recreational and leisure time. Books will be distributed to children in head start and after school programs as well as homeless shelters. |
