First Book is a nonprofit organization established to give children the opportunity to read and own their first new books. Clay County has received many books just for the kids to own and build their own libraries. It is so important for kids to establish a love for reading. Many Alumni work to provide books for Clay County children to take home as their own! Check out this public service message.
