Many thanks to GMA for spreading the word about The Book Fairies! It was such an honour to have #MakedaMakesABirthdayTreat selected as the 5,000,000th book given at a joyous and beautiful celebration at Northwest Elementary in LI. It fills my heart to see communities like these who value the power of books and support readers in the many ways that the Book Fairies and the Northwest educators and families do. Thank you again, Book Fairies, for the wonderful work you do every day to foster a love of reading and share the magic of story! To the Northwest students: keep shining?, and happy reading!

We are thrilled to share that Book Fairies is fast approaching a monumental milestone our 5 Millionth Book Distributed! This historic event will take place on November 14th at Northwest Elementary School in Amityville. In celebration of this achievement, we are launching a $50,000 Matching Gift Challenge to raise critical funds to continue our mission of spreading literacy to underserved communities. Double Your Impact: From now until the end of 2024, every dollar you donate will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000, thanks to the generous support of our matching donor, the Virginia B.
