Mount Sinai St. Luke’s and Mount Sinai Roosevelt recently received 1,492 children’s books from Barnes & Noble’s 2014 Holiday Book Drive. The titles, suitable for toddlers to teens, included The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Madeline, The Berenstain Bears, the Harry Potter series, and lots of classics and award winners. They will be distributed to the hospitals’ emergency departments, OB/GYN clinics, the Child Family Institute’s Psychiatry Outpatient Department, and Community Services for Children and Families. “We were elated to receive this wide selection of children’s titles for our hospital programs,” says Kathleen Dalton, Director of Volunteer Services for Mount Sinai St. Luke’s and Mount Sinai Roosevelt.
