In a recent interview for the Vancouver Sun celebrating Lifetime Collective's new flagship store Little Mountain Workshop (which just so happens to be a new A Good Book Box location), co-founder Reid Stewart was quoted as saying that he's inspired by, “the communities we live in, the places we travel to, and the curious characters that surround us.”
This quote, along with Reid’s story chronicling why he chose to donate his pick, so aptly describe everything he loves about life and Robert Lewis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. It also didn’t hurt that the book featured a wicked skull and crossbones on the front cover. Anchors away.

A Good Book Drive is an annual book drive to bring stories to a new generation of readers, and support kids in need of new books. Running through the month of November, A Good Book Drive will be inspiring Vancouverites to purchase a new copy of their favorite kids’ book and deliver it to set locations throughout the city. At these drop off locations you can personalize your donation with a special bookplate, sharing the story of why that book is special to you. All books will be donated to this year’s book drive recipient, Frontier College Waiting Room Literacy Pilot Project. Share your favourite stories with A Good Book Drive on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. |
