"I've read constantly since a child and books have enriched my life so much. I just can't
imagine life without the chance to escape from this world through a book - it would be
as though someone had suddenly shut the windows."

The newest curator of Read For A Cause is bestselling Author of the “Shopaholic”
series, Sophie Kinsella! Sophie, whose real name is Madeleine Wickham, penned her
bestselling novels about a financial journalist after being one herself. The series

served communities around the globe. The donations that you provide will go directly
towards building three libraries in India. So donate to this amazing cause now!

"All my life I've travelled through books to other places, times, minds and moods. A
book is an instant passport - for some people it may be their only passport. We need to
spread the opportunity to read as widely as we can and Read For A Cause will do just
that."
