The kids at UNC Hospitals Chapel Hill Pediatric Oncology Clinic benefit from reading books to help them escape from boredom, being scared and feeling bad. We are providing them with books they can read in the clinic or take home and we could use your help. We are collecting tax deductable donations and new or gently used children's book for ages preschool to early teens. We are also collecting preschool Spanish/English books.

UNC Students Volunteer
The Book Fairy is getting some much needed help from three current UNC students. Max Nagle, Ashlyn Burns and Katelyn Jones have volunteered to help restock and organized the clinic's book shelves each month. We met last Friday and with Donna Lucier's help, we pulled all of the many chapter books from the shelves, sorted and restocked. We also put out new board books and picture books. So, we're ready for a busy fall.
Karl's Books continues to be a popular distraction at the clinic and the staff appreciate the many books we provide. UNC Chapel Hill Libraries are in the planning stages for their annual book drive for us in December. We love the quality of books they are able to collect.
So, I'll be the one to thank you all for your continued support.
Love,
Kathy
Book Fairy
