Give the Gift of Reading this Month!
The Book Project is in its second week of collecting book donations to support the libraries of Alcott Elementary School and a partner school in Lowell, MA - Peter W. Reilly Elementary School. Families can purchase books from this Amazon wish list, which has been curated by the librarians. The books will be donated directly to the libraries of each school. Please note - when you select a book from the wish list, you may increase the "quantity" to 2 items if you would like to donate the same book to each of the school's libraries. Thank you for supporting this great cause! Feel free to share the link with friends, grandparents and neighbors who might want to participate. We will be running this book drive through the month of February.
