We are so grateful for the wonderful donation of new children’s books for the little library at Matthew House! 📖

We know our kids are going to love discovering new stories, exploring new worlds, and finding a cozy place to read. For children who have experienced so much change, a good book can offer comfort, imagination, and a little escape.
