Working with the Presentation Book Club!

We will be working in conjunction with Presentation's Book Club to facilitate the donation of educational resources to local libraries, after school programs, and schools. We will continue to update the blog with more details as we iron out the logistics!

"AND ALL THE BOOKS YOU’VE READ HAVE BEEN READ BY OTHER PEOPLE. AND ALL THE SONGS YOU’VE LOVED HAVE BEEN HEARD BY OTHER PEOPLE. AND THAT GIRL THAT’S PRETTY TO YOU IS PRETTY TO OTHER PEOPLE. AND THAT IF YOU LOOKED AT THESE FACTS WHEN YOU WERE HAPPY, YOU WOULD FEEL GREAT BECAUSE YOU ARE DESCRIBING ‘UNITY'."

The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
