Strengthening Communities & Developing Language

LENA and First Book are teaming up to make book selection simple and affordable for all LENA program sites.

How Can First Book Help Your Program?

LENA and First Book have created a new streamlined process for getting books to the families in your program.

First Book works exclusively with programs serving children in need to provide affordable access to high-quality books and educational resources. If that sounds like your program:

  • Click here to register. Registration is free and takes less than 10 minutes online. Once registered you will have ongoing access to all of First Book’s free and low-cost books and resources.
  • Visit the First Book Marketplace to purchase books for your program at an average of 60% below retail prices.

If you have questions about registration or the Marketplace experience, contact First Book’s Member Services team at 1-866-READ-NOW or help@firstbook.org. They are available to answer questions and provide solutions from 9am-6pm EST M-F.
