"I love every single one of them."

As I reflect on the past year, my thoughts and eyes keep wandering to the basket that sits in the Book Harvest office. The basket is brimming with joyful, colorful

notes from kids who harvested books this year. Notes like this one from Nayel:


“I appreciate all the hard work y'all put in to make us have books. I love every single one of them.”


Nayel's words keep our team moving toward our big dream of books for every child, support for every parent, and literacy for every community.


Thank you for being part of our community, and for helping Book Harvest amplify the voices of children -- voices that are filled with book joy. Together we are singing from the rooftops that literacy starts at birth, at home, powered by parents and nourished with books! Our growing chorus is being heard — our hard work is paying off. But we will not stop until every community sings with us; until every home is filled with the sounds of book joy.


I hope that as you make your plans for 2023 end‐of‐year giving, you will consider giving a tax‐deductible donation to Book Harvest. If you have already donated, thank you! We are extremely grateful.
