As local children count down the final days of classes, Marietta College’s Education Department is busy creating and delivering Summer Reading Adventure Packs to partner elementary schools to help get books and reading activities into the hands of certain students before they leave for summer break.

Happy World Book Day! Well, officially it’s April 23, but at Book Riot, we’re always celebrating books no matter what day it is. Amazon is celebrating with ten free ebooks, and they all look incredible! On their Read the World page, you can download books to read from across the world, from Madagascar to Germany to Afghanistan and beyond.
Nine of these free books are also translated works, and I know I’ve been working on reading more books in translation, so this is a great opportunity to try some new authors and voices. I don’t know about you, but I’m about to download every single one of these for my library. You can download them for free until April 24, 2021, so run, don’t walk!
