Bess the Book Bus - Free Books for Kids
Bess the Book Bus programs are nurturing, social book fair experiences that help instill a love of reading one child, one caregiver, and one educator at a time. These events manifest our mission and fulfill the promise of book access, choice and ownership for young readers, bridging economic barriers. We endeavor to spark the joy of reading for pleasure and ignite a lifetime of learning.
Every day we work toward a world wherein children, educators and families have equitable access to books that they can choose for their home and classroom libraries.
Bess the Book Bus will be visiting Chapman’s General Store on August 12. Kids can stop by to pick up a free book, and Chapman’s will also be giving out small ice cream cones to young readers.
