Hello I’m Cindy, a Georgia State university student and I’ve had the opportunity to participate in this project. This project is because books are so incredibly important for children. To expand this knowledge, creativity and love for reading. My goal for the project is for children to have access to books. That are not only good books but books that have characters that look like them. I researched the importance of books as well as the Children’s Literature Association dessert books. I am donating books with important messages as well as life lessons.
