  • New Books Only – Gently used or pre-owned books cannot be accepted due to health and safety protocols.

  • Age-Appropriate – Books should be suitable for children from infants to young teens (ages 0–14).

  • Inclusive and Uplifting Content – We encourage titles that are diverse, positive, and empowering.

  • No Religious or Holiday-Specific Themes – Please avoid books focused on specific religions or holidays to ensure inclusivity.

  • No Plush or Sound Books – To comply with hospital hygiene standards, books with attached toys or electronic components cannot be accepted.
