Unfortunately, in the U.S., about sixty seven percent (67%) of fourth graders read below grade level. Children who grow up in homes without age-appropriate books have about a thirty percent probability of completing the nineth grade. In addition, it has been reported that more than a third of children enter kindergarten lacking basic reading skills including knowledge of alphabets and numbers that facilitate learning to read. Less than half of families with kindergarten age children read to them daily. Data suggest that nearly ninety percent of preschool and afterschool programs serving underserved children do not have age-appropriate books for them to read. The key is to make sure that children have age-appropriate books in their homes read to them and for them to learn to read. Moreover, it has been reported that nearly eight thousand students dropout of high school each day. The L2CF responded to a request from the national Reading Is Fundamental (RIF), possibly the most robust non-profit devoted to increasing children’s literacy and sponsored the distribution of fifty age-appropriate books to underserved children. According to RIF, “Children who fall behind in school, fall behind in life.”
