几周前在amazon那逛,看见有一位妈妈介绍的,说是一个免费提供书本给0-5岁孩子的program,一个月一本书,有时候是hard book cover,有时候是paperback。不过要等,她等了一年才拿到书。
我比较幸运,等了几个星期就拿到了,之前什么通知都没有,刚才回到家在门前看见书才想起这program。
这program在美国,加拿大和英国都有,如有兴趣,请到这里看和了解:

从网上抄来的:THE STORY OF DOLLY'S IMAGINATION LIBRARY:
In 1996, Dolly Parton launched an exciting new effort to benefit the children of her home county in east Tennessee. Dolly wanted to foster a love of reading among her county’s preschool children and their families. She wanted children to be excited about books and to feel the magic that books can create. Moreover, she could insure that every child would have books, regardless of their family’s income.
So she decided to mail a brand new, age appropriate book each month to every child under 5 in Sevier County. With the arrival of every child’s first book, the classic The Little Engine That Could ™, every child could now experience the joy of finding their very own book in their mail box. These moments continue each month until the child turns 5—and in their very last month in the program they receive Look Out Kindergarten Here I Come.
