In a young organization our size, every measure of support is not only instrumental in our growth, it also acknowledges Behind the Book's viability and success.   We are grateful for the investment that foundations, businesses, and individuals continue to make in our mission to excite children and young adults about reading.

With our contributors' support, Behind the Book puts the joy back into reading for kids who see reading as work.   We create opportunities for tomorrow through creative reading experiences today.
