Happy National Book Lovers Day!
Happy National Book Lovers Day! We, the Social Enterprise team, took some time to reflect on the books we love and why we love them. It’s amazing how books impact us and the timeless lessons they teach us. Books make us laugh, allow us to dream and imagine, help us consider new realities, and make us feel less alone. Books are some of the best companions! What book do you love? Why do you love it? Share with us on our Instagram today, we’d love to hear from you!
