I want to raise money for children who like reading books but may not have any of their own.

Children in foster care or who don’t have very much can have a better time if they have lots of things to play with and have books to look at.

It’s nice to give money to the Imagination Library because a child could really want a book but they might not have any money and you might have a little bit to spare. I have lots already, more than most people, and would like you to donate my birthday present money to children who might really like a book.

I love reading and I would like other children to be able to read and be able to express themselves and their feelings with books and words because I’m starting to become a writer because I love stories. Love from Isla bye xxxxxxx

Note from Isla's mother: each book costs £2.16, including delivery - if Isla can raise £200 she will be able to gift nearly 100 books to other children.
