shape the stories

This summer, BRJE is inviting you to participate in our Read On, Dream On – Summer Book Drop Campaign!

Starting this summer, all of Brookline’s Little Free Libraries will have books written by BIPOC authors that contain stories of identity, culture, and racial justice history!

With titles for children, young adults, and adults, we’re aiming to make racial justice education and learning of other cultural identities more accessible – one free book at a time. Inside our books, you will also find a custom BRJE bookmark and sticker which we hope you enjoy!

We want to give a special thank you to the Brookline Booksmith who helped source these books to us, and we’re linking all the books included in our campaign.

  • We encourage that if you take a book from one of the Little Free Libraries that you also give a book back so more books can be shared to our community.

  • Want to support the campaign? Donate a book, volunteer to help us during our book drops, or sponsor a purchase.

  • Want to read along? Follow us on Instagram for updates and to check our ‘BRJE Little Free Library’ MAP to find your next favorite read!

To find a Little Free Library near you follow this map:

Shape what stories get shared.

At BRJE, we believe in the power of community — and that includes letting you help shape what stories get shared next. We’re opening up a public voting form where readers can vote on which books they’d like to see featured in our next Book Drop. Whether you’re passionate about powerful memoirs, joyful children’s stories, or justice-centered reads — your voice matters.

BONUS! In our next drop, a few lucky readers will discover a special golden BRJE sticker tucked inside their book! If you find one, let us know — you might receive a little surprise from our team.

Stay tuned and follow us on social media to be the first to vote, track drops, and celebrate stories that move our community forward.
