April means Earth Day
Buy a Book, and Plant a Tree with Barefoot Books!

Looking for a simple yet meaningful way to celebrate Earth Day this year?  Barefoot Books, an award winning, independent children's publishing company has the answer.
 
Barefoot BooksFor the entire month of April, Barefoot Books has partnered with Eco-Libris to plant a tree for every copy of The Barefoot Book of Earth Tales sold.  With your purchase, Barefoot Books will donate a portion of proceeds to plant a tree in a developing nation.  As a book publisher that is focused on the environment, Barefoot Books is always looking for innovative ways to help preserve our planet's resources, while providing the highest quality literature to children.  

At Barefoot Books, we celebrate art and story that opens the hearts and minds of children from all walks of life, inspiring them to read deeper, search further, and explore their own creative gifts.  Taking our inspiration from many different cultures, we focus on themes that encourage independence of spirit, enthusiasm for learning, and sharing of the world's diversity.  Our books are free of licensed characters and are printed on ancient forest-friendly paper.  We offer exceptional, non-commercial products that are not widely available from mass market retailers.

So this month, in celebration of Earth day (and with all those spring birthdays right around the corner!), pick up a copy of The Barefoot Book of Earth Tales and help make the earth a little greener one book at a time.
