Sentences: Book Donations to Prison Libraries and Juvenile Detention Centers discussion

The end of the school year is a good time to think about donating textbooks. Often prisoners will look for certain topics to assist themselves in self-study towards a G.E.D. or, if available through the prison, an associate's, maybe even bachelor's degree. The needs will vary from prison to prison, but even if you don't have your own textbooks to donate, you might find some at a used book store. If you're lucky enough to have a used book store in town that purchases old books, often they have textbooks for free that they were unable to resell, and the end of the school year is when you'll be able to catch them.

My parent is reading so much about the Irish people right now and reads some of it to me. I would so love to read more but as you know may recall, I do not do good reading books online. Skimming is what I do online. I am amazed I read your whole first book online and that is probably the only book I ever did that with.
