Bringing books to life





Volunteer Jake joined the Book Bus for 2 weeks in Malawi during 2013.

"I chose to join the Book Bus after researching lots of projects. The Book Bus really stood out because it was very much part of the community and worked to make a real positive change to the lives of the children it worked with.

Bringing books to life and laughter to the classroom felt incredibly rewarding. I knew that the lessons we planned were making a real difference with the children. 

They were unbelievably excited when the Book Bus drove in to the school playground knowing they would be reading stories, playing games and getting creative!

I felt at home in Malawi and enjoyed getting the chance to spend time with other volunteers and visiting various projects in the area as well as getting to explore the area in my free time, it was an unforgettable experience"  Jake Kubala
