Review for BOOK FAIRIES INC, Freeport, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

After I retired from being an educator for 40 years my Mother & I began volunteering for the Book Fairies. We have both helped out in the warehouse and we also pick up & deliver books for them. I have also assisted them at some public events & some book fairs.
This organization is an invaluable resource for our community. When the teachers receive books for their students they are beyond delighted & appreciative and when the children receive books they are thrilled &!excited to hold books that are now theirs.
Eileen M., Sherry M., Patty, and Samantha are amazing women. Of course, we must not forget Amy Z., the Book Fairies founder. These women are dedicated, committed, and passionate. They are having a huge effect in improving literacy in our youth.

Review for BOOK FAIRIES INC, Freeport, NY, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Books have always been an essential part of my personal & professional life. On a personal level books nurture my mind, body & soul. On a professional level, teaching my special needs students how to read, reading aloud to them, and exposing them to all types of literature was a joy. Listening to them learn & watching them process the power of the world of words and story telling was magical! The WORK that The Book Fairies does is ESSENTIAL. They are a GIFT to our communities...not to mention to the nourishment, development, and education of our youth. A more dedicated group of employees & volunteers I have NEVER experienced before. I am proud to be a volunteer for them.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

None...pure perfection!
