"I am a firm believer in students boundless potential to become avid readers.It's vital to introduce hard cover books to children. Getting books into homes is an inexpensive way to help children succeed, said author Adam Ybarra. Homes with no books equate to below average literacy skills."

"Reading is kind of a gateway to the development of academic skills across all disciplines," said Ben Domingue, an assistant professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University.

Read to Succeed Project will give away Alex The Hippo - Brave & Courageous; Friends & Feelings; Manners & Etiquette; Kindness & Mental Health.
