This is the second year that I am participating in World Book Night. Each year on April 23rd, 25,000 passionate readers spread the love of reading by sharing free World Book Night U.S. paperbacks within their communities. The volunteer book givers each personally hand out 20 books to light or non-readers across America. That's half a million books shared on one day!
