As a kid, I remember when my dad would read to me every single night. In fact, it is one of the fondest memories I have of my late father. From a young age, books opened my eyes to worlds that only exist in your imagination, as well as real places that are just as tangible and magical.

Reading is Fundamental is an organization that shares this sentiment with me. Their mission is to make sure that all kids have access to books and the magic of great pieces of literature. They work with low-income families and want to make sure that no one is illiterate or left behind.

As a writer, I FULLY support this organization and hope that you do too! I don't know what my life would have been like without the knowledge, joy of reading, and ideas that books filled my head with. So, please, read with your kids every night and support this awesome organization!
