What is Fall in Love with Books?

Get ready to embark on a magical journey through the world of literature at Jubilee JumpStart! From November 12th to 26nd, we invite families, book lovers, and community members to celebrate the joy of reading. Our mission is to spark a lifelong love for books in young minds by providing home libraries and bringing enchanting stories to life.

Whether you're a parent, a passionate reader, or someone who cherishes the magic of storytelling, this event is for you. Come explore a realm of imagination and adventure — we can't wait to share the joy of books with you!

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 through this drive will be distributed to our enrolled families or 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.

Fall in Love with Books wouldn't be complete without a few of our favorite storybook characters making an appearance 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 at 10am on November 22nd.  Contact
Verena for details on the specific route and starting time.

This year, this event will be indoors on Friday, November 22nd, at 4pm-6pm.
