Worth area.
But he didn't stop there. The next event was a book drive where Jean collected and delivered 500,000 books to kids at book fairs across the country. "I used the things that I saw on the news every day," Jean explained."People losing their jobs and their homes and access to food and books and clothing--things we sometimes can take for granted, and with a little bit of kindness, we can hopefully give back those things. If we continue giving back, then it makes us feel like we're getting something just simply by being kind.
