I just want to share a little story about what made me love my journey as a literacy promoter. A mom came to me and shared how ‘My First Reading Library’ helped her.

Have you ever held your sweet baby in your arms and dreamed of giving them every opportunity? The desire to provide our children with a better life than we had is something many of us deeply understand. I remember moving to a new school at age nine, going from the top of my class to being two grade levels behind. It was a challenging time, filled with self-doubt and the label of a "struggling student." I never wanted this for my children. I wanted them to know how smart they are, to learn, grow, and have the confidence to achieve anything they set their minds to.
Reading and books were a cornerstone of this vision. But as a newlywed with a tight budget, our visits to the library were frequent out of necessity. When I had three children, I discovered PaperPie, then known as Usborne Books. I fell in love with their amazing books and wanted all of them but faced the harsh reality of not being able to afford them all.
Then came an unexpected opportunity. PaperPie allowed me to earn money while building a library for my children for free and at a huge discount. What started as a mission to provide my kids with a rich world of books turned into a journey that not only paid the bills but also took me places I had never imagined.
PaperPie has given me the freedom to enjoy life while homeschooling, being a dance mom, chauffeuring, and doing all the things my children needed. I've built a library filled with books that inspire and educate, and I've gained financial independence along the way.
My story with PaperPie is one of transformation and empowerment. It began with a simple desire to provide for my children but grew into something much more—a journey of personal growth and fulfillment. If you're curious about how PaperPie can change your life too, stay with me as I share more about this incredible opportunity. ☺

There will be days when you wonder if your book business is actually going anywhere. When you’ve posted, reached out, invited people to parties, and still feel like nothing is happening.

But this is where you keep going anyway. 🤍

Every post, every conversation, every party, every book shared with a family is a little step forward. You never know whose child will fall in love with reading because of something you shared.

So here’s your reminder: keep showing up. Keep sharing the books. Keep inviting. Keep believing. ✨

One day, you’ll look back and realize all those little steps were building something bigger than you thought. by @lovin2read

People often celebrate the results, but they rarely see the work behind them.

The unanswered messages, the videos that barely get views, the fear of starting over, the days you wonder if it’s even working.

But every post, every conversation, every small win is planting seeds. by @lovin2read

Sometimes the best thing we can give our kids isn’t more stuff or more screen time — it’s just us.

Reading together.
Talking before bed.
Playing for a little while without distractions.
