Free Books for Kids Program

Gifting books to children is a simple but effective way to support the literacy development of our children and future leaders.

Free Books for Kids is a program that builds libraries in children’s homes. All you need is 20 books in the home to start making a positive impact on literacy and learning. The more books you add the greater the impact.

We distribute high-quality children’s books through Christmas Hampers in partnership with Food banks across PEI and the PEI Public Library Service.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library

This is a free book gifting program devoted to inspiring a love of reading in the hearts of children everywhere. Each month, more than 3000 children in PEI receive a high quality, age-appropriate book in the mail, free of charge until their fifth birthday.

We administer the Imagination Library program in PEI.

More than 80% of parents whose children are enrolled in the Imagination Library in PEI have reported:

That they are more aware of the importance of early literacy
That they are reading more as a family
That their children ask to be read to more often
