Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is a book gifting program that mails free hand-selected, age-appropriate, high-quality books to children from birth to age five each month. Little Apple Need 2 Read is raising funds to bring this proven early childhood literacy program to Manhattan, Kansas.
The books arrive directly from the publisher and include exclusive questions for families to discuss with their children to aid in reading comprehension and development.
Lauren Howard, a student in the LEAD 405 class, understands the potential this program has for the Manhattan, Kansas, community: “I was surprised by the literacy rate of children in the Manhattan community. I think that this project is really impactful because of how big of a difference getting books in children’s hands could make.”
Together, we can put books into the hands and hearts of children in our community! Will you join us?
