"World Book Night is an annual celebration dedicated to spreading the
love of reading, person to person. Each year on April 23, tens of
thousands of people go out into their communities and give half a
million free World Book Night paperbacks to light and non-readers. In
2012, World Book Night was celebrated in the U.S., the UK, Ireland, and
Germany."
World Book Night Web Site (click here) stated this in their first paragraph about what they are about. You have an opportunity to join in this amazing evening, April 23, by sharing in passing out books, free books, to a community you think would love to read.
Check out the web site to see how to sign up. The deadline was January 23, now extended to January 25 (I believe because they didn't have their web site up for a few days). Choose what books you may want to give away, share with them who you would give them to (no book club or family/friends) and why you would want to do this. Easy Peasy.
I have submitted my request and will see if it is granted. Please share if you have entered your request. There will be publicity when this happens so watch for it in local papers. Good luck and enjoy!
