Brooke had a passion for reading, always engrossed in a good book. Therefore, it was only natural to incorporate books in our endeavors to spread kindness in her memory.
Learning to read is more than just reading what is printed on the page. It's also about listening and understanding. Reading exposes children to various words, stories, and worlds. Reading helps children build their vocabulary and learn to use those words correctly. It teaches them that listening is also vital to learning to read.
We recognized the significance of providing books to the Little Libraries in our area, but we felt the need to do something additional. Hence, we established Brooke's Little Libraries to give back to our community.

Ribbon cutting on our first Brooke's Little Library
On January 28, 2024, the Brooke Erin Posey Foundation held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the first Brooke's Little Library. The event was attended by members of the BEPF board, Moisant Kiwanis, Swim for Brooke team, and family and friends. Special guest, Jennie Boudreaux, Executive Director with Start the Adventure in Reading was also in attendance to officially announce StairNola as the recipient of the 2024 Brooke E. Posey Swim-a-Thon & Family FUNraiser.
After a short speech, everyone had the opportunity to choose a book and place it in the library, starting with Brooke's father, Ernest. It was a beautiful day filled with joy and excitement.
