Clean out your bookshelves and mark your calendar – Saturday, September 10th is the Book Bus! We’re collecting used and new books of any kind (with a special emphasis on children’s books) for Reader to Reader, the Amherst-based nonprofit that helps increase literacy by getting books to underfunded schools, libraries in low-income communities and Native American reservations.

The Book Bus is located in River’s parking lot, 15 Hampton Ave., downtown Northampton. Hours are 11am-1pm. Bring books and you’ll be entered in a raffle to win a family four-pack to Six Flags! Plus music, treats, and special appearances from local hero and New York Times best-selling author Jarrett J. Krosoczka, Heidi Stemple and more.

Thanks to our sponsors for making the Book Bus possible! Alternative Recycling, Northampton Brewery, A2Z Science and Learning Store, Eric Carle Museum, Galaxy Restaurant, Northeast Solar and Pierce Bros. Coffee!
