Free Jew"ish" Books For Kids
« on: June 15, 2012, 10:58:53 AM »
The Dolly Parton Imagination Library allows you to register your kids for a free book every month.  I signed up a long time ago and recently started getting them (the little engine that could, goldilocks and the 3 bears, classics)

I think eligibility is based on locale.
OT but the little engine that could was always my favorite

Yeah I also signed up close to a year ago and started receiving it 3 books ago. Its better for me as a parent than it is for my kid - reading the same books to him over and over gets boring.

I did this one where you get a bunch of books really cheap and then cancel subscription.  The deal now is 4 for $5. I think I got 5 for $5

There is another organization that does free Jewish books..... http://www.pjlibrary.org/parents-and-families/enrollment.aspx they have locations all over the country so your bound to find a center that is near by.

To enroll find the closest location to you, and go to there information page on the left side mid way thought the page you will see a yellow button that says "Enroll In This Community" hit it and enter your info!

Good luck!

Nice find. 

When you sign up, you choose an age group and that determines the books you get.  You can see the list of books for each age group here
