All Hallows Read
With Halloween quickly approaching I wanted to take some time to highlight this cool event going on.
All Hallows Read takes place Oct 25th. The premise is simple - putting appropriate scary books into the hands of young readers by having a book drop. It was started by Neil Gaiman. Harper Collins Canada is hoping to have it take places in as many cities in Canada as possible as well.
If you wish to know more about this great event you can visit the official website. If you are able to leave a book out in the wild for some young reader to stumble upon or even just want to spread the word please tweet about it using the official hash-tag #AllHallowsRead.
The picture at the top of this page is a sticker image that is being placed into the books being left out. Feel free to save it, and print it out to place in any books you might be dropping off.
I am excited to drop off my own books and hope we make this All Hallows Read a special one for young readers everywhere.
