Penguin Young Readers and Books-A-Million have formed a partnership for a national charity campaign. Every time a Books-A-Million customer purchases of a book from Brad Meltzer’s Ordinary People Change the World series, the two organizations will donate a book to First Book.
The latest installment of this biographical picture book series is I am Helen Keller. In the past, Meltzer has profiled Amelia Earhart, Lucille Ball, and Albert Einstein for this project.
According to the press release, “First Book will ensure the donated books reach the hands of children from low-income families.” The campaign will begin on September 15th and end on October 30th.
