Hunger is a very real problem for too many people in our community, especially now. Our goal is to feed 8 families. Thanks to the generosity of Scholastic and Peter H. Reynolds, our entire ticket price for this event will go directly to the food drive. The Purple Couch Bookshop has committed to make up any difference to achieve that goal. We will also be accepting additional donations. Please help us use The Gift of Words to achieve or even EXCEED our goal.The fundraiser will include a story time featuring The Gift of Words as well as some of our favorite Peter H. Reynolds books. Each family ticket purchased will include a copy of The Gift of Words, an inspirational holiday story celebrating the power of words. This is an epic follow-up to the New York Times bestselling classic The Word Collector by creative visionary Peter H. Reynolds.So many words, strung together, shimmering and dreamy. So many people, connected, together, hopeful and united. And that was the power of the gift of words. A gift for all.Jerome is looking forward to collecting words this holiday season! Words of hope, love, and joy to share with his loved ones. But as he begins his search, he discovers that inspirational words are hard to come by. In the end, Jerome finds a way to connect with his community and join together in sharing the greatest gift of all: the gift of words.We hope you will also take some time to help us decorate our trees with your words! As Vashti's teacher tells her in his book The Dot, "Just make a mark and see where it takes you." We hope to cover our tree in your kind, welcoming, hopeful, and beautiful words.We recognize that families will be attending together. Please make sure you have one paid ticket (the cost of the book), and free tickets for the rest of your group so we have appropriate seating and craft supplies.
