In some of the country's poorest neighborhoods, there is only one book for every 300 children. That makes it hard for kids to learn and succeed. But you can put books into those hands with First Book. If you work with kids from low-income families, sign up with nonprofit First Book today: http://www.firstbook.org/receive-books

By age 3, low-income children have vocabularies about half the size of children from wealthier families.

Literacy goes beyond school, and starts in the home, which is why books at home are crucial to children's literacy development.
