Ethan & Choco's Book Club

Striving to make access to books and reading a core part of the care that kids receive in the hospital, with the premise that literacy support for children fighting cancer and other life-altering conditions can help promote cognitive health and social connections that are part of thriving through treatment and beyond

Thank you Kris Allison and Burnham Beneffits!!!!

Thank you so much to everyone who donated books in the month of September! A HUGE thank you to Kris Allison and Burnham Benefits for the 60 hardcover book titles that you donated– wow, that gave the ECBC Lending Library a fantastic boost (especially of board books, which we really still need a ton of)!  Thank you also to the Schulman Family and Congregation B’Nai Israel Preschool for your super generous donations this month. And a great big thank you to everyone who donated books to ECBC at the OC Children’s Book Festival last weekend — we received so many great books from festival-goers and local authors! Thank you author Lisa Day for donating so many of your own books — they are paperback books so they will go to our Gifting Library, and a bunch of kids in isolation will get to receive them! And thank you to a few of the girls from  Girl Scout Troop #3115 for showing up at the Festival and helping to collect so many book donations that day!
