Free Bookstory Reading Recordings for Military Families

What a great idea.  A Story Before Bed is giving away recordings of parents reading stories to their child before bed for parents who are in the military and who are deployed or deploying.  They are giving away 100,000 recordings and have already given 44,250 of those.

From their website:

The team behind A Story Before Bed is dedicated to connecting children with parents, grandparents, and loved ones through reading. And we're especially dedicated to connecting families and loved ones who can't always be together. When parents give up seeing their children for weeks or months at a time in the service of their country, we want to do our small part.

Parents who are members of one of the branches of the U.S. Armed Forces who are deploying or already deployed away from their children for any amount of time are eligible to sign up for free recordings from A Story Before Bed.
