The croc and boy have spoken. February 14 is International Book Giving Day. You can give a book to a child. You can donate a book to a place that could use it. Or you could just leave a book in a waiting room or lobby with a note that says “This book isn’t going to take itself home”.
Click here to visit the International Book Giving Day website to learn more.
Click here to donate to FirstBook, an organization that gives books to children in need.
