Summer Book Bus Delivers Thousands of Free Books across Pinellas County

The Summer Book Bus is on the road in Pinellas County, working to combat learning loss through free books.

The bus makes an average of 70 stops across the county every summer and gives away nearly 10,000 free books in underserved neighborhoods.

The stops include libraries, communication recreation centers, family centers, childcare centers, schools and more.

Kids are invited onto the bus to pick two books to take home.

The bus is sponsored by the Juvenile Welfare Board in partnership with the school district. It’s part of JWB’s Early Readers, Future Leaders Grade-Level Reading Campaign.
