New Year. New Books. New Library. 📚✨

A new librarian deserves a fresh start—and sometimes that means giving the library a little refresh, too!

Kids Need to Read is proud to bring new books and fresh possibilities to school libraries, helping librarians build collections that inspire curiosity, reflect their students, and get kids excited to read.

A refreshed library can become a place where students discover a favorite author, find a story that speaks to them, or simply fall in love with reading.

Here’s to new beginnings, new books, and a whole new chapter for this school library! 💙📚

Some people leave behind memories. Dolly Parton leaves behind a world of readers.

Kids Need to Read joins children, families, educators, authors, and literacy advocates everywhere in remembering a remarkable champion for books and the belief that every child deserves the chance to fall in love with reading.

Dolly understood that a book can be more than a story. It can be a doorway to imagination, a source of comfort, a spark for a dream, and the beginning of a lifelong journey.

Her generosity put millions of books into children’s hands and helped generations discover what is possible when you open a book.

Her story may have come to an end, but the stories she helped place in children’s hands will continue. 📚❤️

Thank you, Dolly, for helping the world dream bigger, one book at a time.

There’s a beautiful reminder in a Calfornia Costal town: “Don’t forget to water your dreams.” 🌱📚

At Kids Need to Read, we believe every child’s dreams deserve a chance to grow—and books are one of the best ways to help them do it.

A book can spark a dream, open a new world, build confidence, or inspire a child to imagine a future they never thought possible. But just like a plant, those dreams need care, opportunity, and a little nourishment along the way.

Let’s keep watering their dreams—one book at a time. 💙

Sometimes the words are too long to explain how we feel. So... Here is a Meme that shows a fraction of the joy we see when kids get to pick out -and keep- a book of their choice.
This moment would not exist without you. Thank you for supporting our mission to get books into the hands of children.
