What is Fall In Love With Books all about?

Fall In Love With Books is an experience that happens at Jubilee JumpStart to inspire a love for books and reading in the early years of life. With support from our community partners and volunteers, we help families build home libraries while bringing favorite children's stories to life. 

Want to get involved?  Read on!

Be A Team of JumpStar Readers

Would your work team or social group like to pop in (or appear on-screen) to share favorite children's books with our little ones? We're thrilled that we can invite visitors into our center again (with some safety measures in place). And we're always available via Zoom. We've got the books and the children, all that's missing is YOU!  Email Danica to secure a day for your group today. You can also ask about solo opportunities to share a favorite children's story.

Donate to Our Book Drive

Can't join us as a JumpStar Reader?  Help us stock home libraries with developmentally-appropriate books our children love. Donate a book or two during our Family Book Drive.  All books received as part of this drive will be distributed to our enrolled families and added to our Little Free Library.  



You can find the books on our list  just about anywhere you buy books.  Shipping instructions are on the list. 

Be A Spectator at our Storybook Parade

Fall In Love with Books wouldn't be complete without a few of our favorite storybook characters showing up in the neighborhood.  

Live or work in Adams Morgan? Come cheer us on as we bring favorite book characters to life during our Storybook Parade on the morning of Friday, October 21st.  Contact Danica for details on the specific route and starting time. 

Be a volunteer at our Fall Literacy Festival

We will wrap up Fall In Love with Books with our Fall Literacy Festival.  There will be loads of family fun and storybook magic all with the purpose of connecting families and equipping them to create storybook magic of their own at home. This year this event will be indoors at The Line Community Center on Friday, October 28th at 5 pm. 

Would you like to volunteer to help make the magic happen?  Email
Danica to sign-up.
