Free Books For All!!
There is a specific time of year to do everything, from birthdays to gift giving. From back yard barbecues for Fourth of July and Labor day, to even grandparent’s day! Giving books to someone even has it’s own day, actually it shares this day with valentines day.
Even though this day has passed, it really got me thinking. Why does this have to be a day celebrated only once a year? Why can’t we make it a conscious matter to share our books with others? Especially to children in need all the time!?!
What, or how could we do this? Book Giving Day has few organized events. Instead, individual volunteers are encouraged to give a favorite book or books to children. This can take many forms; some people give books as gifts to their own children or to those of friends. Others donate books to children’s libraries, schools or charities. Still others leave books in places where they’ll be found, such as doctors’ waiting rooms or coach stations.
February 14th the one day a year where we set time aside to tell our family and friends we love them right?? What better way to tell our children, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, etc. we love them than with a book! A book that we can give them anytime of the year!
Books are small things that leave a lasting impact! So many authors are where they are today because of a book. Imagine, by our giving a book instead of a card, we could be helping to inspire a future author. What’s more, an inscription on the inside cover is the best way to take a book, and make into something more. Something special, and long lasting.
Even though the 14th of February has long since passed, I still want to honor this day. But how? Several ways! Since my second book in the Adventures of Lorenzo the Bear Series was released in March, I’ve holding giveaways for both copies: The Adventures of Lorenzo the Bear Encounter at Jellyfish Cove, and Journey to Honeysuckle Mountain. In addition to setting up giveaways through Goodreads, and Rafflecopter, I’ve also opened this up to Amazon and have FREE download Days for my first book in the series Encounter at Jellyfish Cove.
This Monday September 7th 2015 is another FREE DOWNLOAD DAY!! Visit Amazon.com
