There’s a lot of discussion these days about the importance of reading and writing, and how they can impact students’ success in school and beyond. But one thing that’s often overlooked is the role that books can play in helping students build their vocabulary and reading speed.
That’s where the Better World Books Drop Box comes in. Located at the Exton Mall, this program allows students to donate their gently used books in exchange for a voucher that can be used to purchase new books at the Better World Books website.
Not only does this help students clear out their closets and make room for new books, but it also provides them with an opportunity to expand their literary horizons. And who knows? They might just find their new favorite author in the process.
