Nina Robinson has a great vision of helping kids get excited about reading! She started My Book Buddy business to encourage children and teenagers to read more. Unlike most bookstores, when a book is sold another book is given to a child in need, giving back to the local community. About 60% of their products are buy a book, give a book items. Lovely concept!
You can find below what other people said for Nina and her business, why she was nominated and what it took to become the IdeaCafe's Entrepreneur of 2016.
My Book Buddy is a company that is vital to the recovery of our kid's low reading levels. It provides kids with the opportunity to read books in a fun environment and allows them to build a book collection of their own. Nina is a passionate woman who recognized the need for such a company and decided to create one herself instead of search and support. She leads a team of passionate people who share the same goal and through My Book Buddy they WILL make a great impact. Great woman, great professional, great vision, great execution.
