I do not mean to sound like a curmudgeon but the subject of free books for kids has always been interesting because many of those same kids own techie stuff, etc., which are not free giveaways. When something is free, I am not sure it has the same value as something that is paid for. From the chair in which I sit, I would love to see more funding for children's services/public libraries and zillions of kids in the library...as well as more terrific programing by trained librarians.
