    Default Looking for books to send?

    Is your local school getting new textbooks for the next school year? What does your local library do with books they no longer want? Do they care to donate any books which are needed by any prisons on our list? You can find what books prisons need by following this link:

    Books like many items, simply rot away on our shelves if we don't use them. Why hang on to them when they could be having a useful life and be of value to people? They just become clutter

    But they absolutely DO want it. You wouldn't believe the novels that get passed around! My pp HATES that stuff but ends up reading it anyhow when that's what's going around. He called Twilight "some love novel bullshyte..." ha ha!!! Made me laugh. It's not only reference books that they eat up. I've sent a box or two with all sorts of mixed things. It gives you a lot of pleasure to know that something you probably wouldn't even notice as gone gets a lot of use.

    I just noticed that the prison my pp is in is now registered on this list so I ran around the house and found some stuff to send. I'll make sure to tell him which books came from my house maybe he can read one!
