Today was a fantastic way to celebrate our 4th Anniversary (and Debbie's birthday) as we visited every kindergarten classroom in Widefield School District 3!

Between today's visits and yesterday's visits to the preschool classrooms, we delivered over 5,500 books and helped over 1,000 students build their home library w/ age-appropriate books.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this project happen, and we'll make sure to post pictures from the event soon!

Our "March Match" donation event has officially started -- a chance to get your book donations doubled!

The first 313 books donated in March (in honor of Debbie's birthday of March 13) will be matched on a title-by-title basis by members of our board.

So every copy of Curious George or Elephant and Piggie or your personal favorite will be matched with a copy of the same book by our board members!

Check out all the information (as well as suggested book titles on our Amazon wish list) here: https://morebookscos.org/march-match

Since starting 3 years ago we've delivered 8,991 books to 1,726 students and their teachers -- and if we hit our goal with this donation event we'll have enough books for 200+ more students!

Thank you for considering donating!

A HUGE "thank you" to Foothills Elementary in Academy District 20 who is in the middle of a book drive -- or more of a book avalanche!

Today we were fortunate to visit the preschool students at the CPCD's Head Start classrooms at Helen Hunt!

After reading "The Gruffalo" we distributed a total of 198 books to the students and teachers -- helping the kids to build their own library at home and grow their love of learning.

Looking forward to more book distributions to come this fall!
