If you're in the LA area, you can deliver new and gently used books to Rohan. And if you're an author or illustrator with extra copies of your books you’d like to donate, you can send them via media mail. Reach out to Rohan to coordinate: readingamongruins@gmail.com.

Thank you for your support!

Rohan created Reading Among Ruins, an initiative that helps other kids who have been impacted by LA's devastating blazes via 'Free Book Shop' pop-up events around LA.

The easiest way to contribute is to send books via Rohan's Amazon Wishlist: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

#kidlit #booksky

Rohan is a 13-year-old from the Pacific Palisades whose family lost their home and most of their belongings in the Palisades fire, including their treasured book collection. In the midst of his own grief, this amazing young man decided to help others.

#kidlit #booksky #writingcommunity

If you’re looking for another way to help those impacted by the wildfires, you can donate books to bring a bit of comfort to kids who have lost everything.

All the info is at the website: sites.google.com/view/reading...

And you can follow the project on IG at @readingamongruins.
