My Books Every Day | Grades K–5
Connect Students to Books. Connect Families to Schools.
My Books Every Day is a books-to-home literacy program that encourages a personal connection to reading while nurturing the relationship between families and schools.
Distribute Books. Develop Students.
Students are 2x as likely to achieve literacy success when they have just one book in the home.1 My Books Every Day sends 5 books home with each student along with book-specific student, family, and teacher resources for a full 360° impact.
"When students have access to a larger number of books in their home, their reading motivation is higher, their attitude toward reading is more positive, and reading competence increases."
Engage Students & Families with One Program
My Books Every Day gives students and families the tools to make lasting personal connections to reading and learning.
"What students learn at home provides an essential foundation on which schools can build. Without it, neither students nor schools can reach their full potential."
3 Themes Promote Self-Development
My Books Every Day is available in three complementary themes. Each book was carefully chosen to build students' sense of self as well as compassion for others and the world around them.
