“Novel Idea: The Women’s Storybook Project of Texas has helped 15,000 – plus incarcerated moms write a new chapter. Every month the nonprofit’s volunteers visit prisons across the Lone Star State to record inmates as they read kid classics like Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny; the recordings and books are then mailed to the women’s children. To support more families this Mother’s Day, go to storybookproject.org.”
Thank you to O for honoring our mission!
Happy to announce that we’re the winner of the 2019 Library of Congress State Literacy Award! Women’s Storybook Project of Texas is honored and grateful to have been selected. Special thanks to David M. Rubenstein, The Library of Congress, WSP volunteers and supporters.
It’s a simple idea with a huge impact.
