The 2009 My Own Book Recap is now available!
Visit the "Yearly Recap" page to find My Own Book's year-end recap.
My Own Book is an organization in which teens visit disadvantaged K through 3rd graders, read a story aloud, tell about the public library, and then each child gets to choose their very own book from a selection of brand new books. Finally, a book plate is added to the book with the child's name on it. We are spreading the love of reading: one book at a time, one child at a time.
