Thank you KIII-TV for sponsoring our fifth annual book drive.

We are asking Coastal Bend citizens to donate (recycle) any gently used baby or children's books for use in the Early Bird Reader Program. We're looking for books for ages 0-5, which means lots of colorful illustrations with 50 words or less. We can also use older children's books for rewards for the readers.

The book drive will be at KIII-TV studios at 5002 South Padre Island Drive from 5:30 AM to 6:30 PM on Friday, March 25th. If your neighborhood, church, business, or organization wants to start collecting books now to turn in the day of the book drive, let us know and we will schedule a time for you to get on TV when you bring your books in! Our contact information is to the left.

Or you can drop off books anytime at our permanent bookery locations.
