I spoke with your wife several times to arrange for the pick-up of some of these donated books. I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was absolutely floored by the opportunity. I counted and sorted the books before taking them to school and counted an AMAZING 909 BOOKS!!! I can't thank you enough for contacting us! We have a lot of lower income and ESOL students, and we try to collect new/used books for our Kinder class. Our goal every year is to send each of them home with 10 books to call their own, and help them excited about reading. This will be a perfect way to kick that off for the '09-'10 school year! I would like to send a proper thank you to you, but I haven't the slightest idea where to begin getting an address. (If you can, please shoot me an address when you get a chance at davgin3@yahoo.com.) Thanks again! I can't wait to tell the kids (and parents) about this when school starts in August! You and your fans are THE BEST!!!! Hi there,

Maybe you guys could mention that Ohio's libraries are in big trouble if proposed cuts are made in the state budget. http://saveohiolibraries.com/ Thanks for "listening" and can't wait to see you guys on Saturday!

I loved to read as a kid :-) I will be bringing a book to the show in Irvine, CA :-) One quick question though. I will buy a new book...But does it have to be a book that was written/published in recent years??? Or can i buy a new copy of a book that i loved as a little kid? P.S. If you need my email address, i'd be happy to give it to you :-) But i'm not sure i wanna post it here for everyone to find. Much love from California <3 Goldie (donniesgirl01@twitter) XoXo Hey Joey,

I'll be seeing you next week in Detroit. I published my first juvenile fiction book in December 2008. I'm happy to bring a bunch of new copies of the first edition, but it's a middle reader (targeted for ages 7-12). It's a fairy tale with universal themes though -- and would work for younger girls to read with their older siblings or with an adult...and there are illustrations. Would it seem totally self-promoting if I brought a bunch of copies for the drive? I don't want to show up to the backstage meet/greet with a box of my own books and look like a dork. ;) sendtojenn@yahoo.com See you soon and much love, Jenn Hi Joe!

I was a volunteer at the concert in Saratoga, NY 6/16 - is there any way that Live Nation can put something on the tickets to promote "Let's Get This?" This would definitely help to collect more books, but you'd just have to make sure there are enough boxes to collect the books in! This was a great experience - we got a lot of positive feedback from those who brought books to the concert. Some of the children who came with their parents handed us their book - it is wonderful to see the children participating and getting involved with such a wonderful foundation! Thank you for the opportunity to work with you! Let's Get This growing!!! Lots of Love, Dorothy Hey Joey!

We are lucky in Australia that there are quite a few great children's authors so if you are wanting books from Australia I'm more than happy to bring some to the Melbourne concert as I'm sure your children in the US will love them as much as our kids do.They are easy to read,great moral messages and fantastic illustrations. I'm actually doing a similar drive at my dance studio for children in Papua New Guinea who can't afford books,pencils etc so I think it's a great idea what you are doing and I'm sure all children will thank you!

Love it!! Brilliant idea about the book drive. I am one of those that asked to volunteer with my kids, but I respect your wishes. So I will think of other ways to help, since my kids may come with me to the concert. That depends on how kid friendly I see they are on youtube. So please help me out there. I've already told the friends/family going with me to the concert in Memphis about the book drive. They don't have internet. I have it only at work. Thanks again, Mr. Mac, for the inspiration.

I am an early childhood special education teacher as well as a parent educator. As part of my job I do home visits with the families that I teach. It is a shame to see the lack of books in these homes. One of my favorite parts of my job is encouraging families to read with their children and allow time for their child to explore through the wonder of a book! This program is a wonderful way to stress the serverity of early intervention through books/reading. Thanks for making an effort! The joy of reading to a child...watching their minds wonder and imaginations soar is truly a blessing. I plan on bringing a few boxes full of books to the concert. I have 5* is St. Louis on July 1...I hope to see you then. Thanks again for your effort on promoting literacy! I am already a huge supporter and plan on continuing to help support your efforts! --katie, st. louis katie_kehoe@hotmail.com Joe- The “Let’s Get This” idea is terrific!
