Mailbooks For Good. Re-gift the gift of reading.

"Mailbooks For Good is an innovation in book publishing. Thanks to a specially designed dust jacket once readers have finished the books, they are instructed to turn them inside out and reseal them. The books become pre-paid pre-addressed parcels ready to be delivered to charity."



Isn't this a wonderful idea? I usually check out books from the library, but there is always that impulse book buy! I have a few bookshelves of my favorites/old books, but I find that I accummulate too many books that I will never crack open again.
