From classic picks to more modern releases, children’s books are essential for young readers to make sense of the world around them. As a mother of three and a big reader herself, Melinda Gates understands the importance of exposing children to books. She and husband Bill Gates have always been open about their love of literature, often making reading recommendations. The philanthropist is now helping even more children discover the power of reading as she joins the “Great Minds” edition of Literati, a subscription children’s book club.
