All children benefit from someone they love reading aloud to them, from a child in the womb to a young adult graduating from high school.
The United Through Reading book list includes books that have been sent to our story stations or partner organizations. United Through Reading selects books using recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics, our partner organizations, and other high profile associations in the education field. The books we select have positive messaging that reflects our organization’s ethos, reflect the diversity of the military community, and are books that we know service members will want to read. The engaging, compelling, and fun stories are sure to resonate with military children.
You can order your own free copy of any of the books below through the United Through Reading App.
