Give a book, help a child

There’s still time to donate a book to the annual Half Pint Library Book Drive.
Half Price Books sponsors the six-week program every year to collect and, with the help of local nonprofits, give out books to children in need.
This program has provided 2 million books to children across the country.
You can donate new or gently used children’s books to one of the Half Price Books stores through March 31. Spanish-language books are OK.
Half Price Books has stores in Everett, at 1321 SE Everett Mall Way, suite A, and in Lynnwood, at 19500 Hwy 99, suite 102.
A few more stores are located in King County. My favorite one is on Seattle’s Capitol Hill. I can spend hours there among odd books, board games and greeting cards.
