Bringing Books Alice has always loved reading."Growing up，I was really shy，so I always turned to books."she says.In 2019，Alice was in high school when her dad had a serious illness.Books became an even bigger comfort.She started thinking about families in similar situations.（1） When Alice's dad got better，she came up with a plan to help others."The idea came from just the great thanks to the doctors who saved her dad."she says.
    Alice started a book drive in her hometown.The goal was to collect books for kids being treated for serious illnesses in local hospitals.Her father was not surprised."（2）她總是對書籍感興趣。"he says."And she always wanted to do things for the neighborhood."She called the book drive for Love &Buttercup.She's collected more than 10，000 books.
    Alice started by posting on social media.（3）她請求她家鄉(xiāng)的人捐書。"I was expecting maybe two or three replies from neighbors."she says."But it ended up blowing up."News stations began reporting it.
    Alice continues to run the book drive.She gets help from her parents."We do the driving."her dad says.She hopes to one day spread the project to reach more kids.The memory of the first time she visited children who had received her books sticks with her."It was the best day of my life."she says."（4） I realized I wanted to do this kind of work forever."
