Three simple ways to celebrate International Book Giving Day!
1. Give a Book to a Friend or Relative. - Celebrate International Book Giving Day by providing a child a brand new or used books. This helps spreading the love of reading to everyone.
2. Leave a Book in a Waiting Room or Lobby - Celebrate International Book Giving Day by leaving a book in a room or a lobby where there are a number of children. So choose a waiting room where kids are stuck waiting like clinic, in house playgrounds. Choose a waiting room that has few to no good books available. Purchase a good book, and deposit your book covertly or overtly in your waiting room of choice. The goal here is to spread the love of reading to kids, so choose a fun book, nothing controversial.
3. Donate a Book - there are a lot of organizations or individuals who focuses on giving books to less fortunate. I myself is engage in collecting books and giving it out to schools like Colalo Elementary School. I am adopting their library and build it a working library.
