Julia Booker – Learning to Love Reading

Meet Julia Booker, the heart and soul of Booker's Book Nook. She has a passion for sharing the love of reading! She's a representative with PaperPie (formerly Usborne). Their motto? "We gather for good around literacy and learning." For five years now, Julia's been hosting an annual book drive bash, raising money to hook up foster care kids in CCC (Community Care County) with shiny new books. In just the last two years, she's scored enough donations to dish out a whopping 1,200 top-notch books, one for each kid in the county's care. Julia's no newbie to the kid scene; she's spent over 20 years waltzing through roles like dance teacher, sub, helper, and Sunday school teacher. When she's not dishing out the best children's stories, she's got her hands full, homeschooling her two sons. Julia's on a mission to bring families closer, one book at a time. Find out more about Julia and PaperPie by listening to this week's podcast!
