Bob the Mail Snail — to raise money for the non-profit Room to Read, a nine year old and an eleven year old wrote and illustrated a children's book (full disclosure, those two girls are the founder's children).

Room to Read is a fabulous non-profit organization that builds libraries and schools, awards education scholarships to girls, and prints local language books in Asia and Africa. So far they have built 7,600 libraries, 833 schools, delivered 6 million books and funded 8,700 girls' scholarships. But their need is still great in many countries.

The book is available on Amazon (with free Prime shipping), but if you purchase it on the Create Space Store website, Room to Read gets more money (Amazon takes a larger share).
