We created the DoSayGive Summer Book Club eight years ago with a simple mission: to help families discover the kind of children’s books that nourish young hearts and minds. The kinds of books that spark imagination, cultivate curiosity and virtue, and slow children down long enough to wonder, dream, and fall in love with reading.

Over the years, thousands of families have joined us each summer to enjoy classic stories, simple screen-free activities, and meaningful moments together.

That’s exactly why we created the Senior Year Survival Guide which you can download today.
