Coronavirus Update
We’re inspiring boys to read wherever they are
Barbershop Books has distributed 2,325 free new books to emergency feeding sites and due to your generosity, we're preparing to giveaway a lot more. We're also leading weekly virtual read alouds and developing an innovative eLibrary. Special thanks to Oakpoint Charitable Foundation and our community partners across the country.
