Tree House Books

Tree House Books Tree House Books is growing & sustaining a community of readers, writers, and thinkers in Philadelphia, PA

Tree House Books is a literacy center and Giving Library based in North Philadelphia serving children and families. Our programs move beyond strictly academics to include a social, emotional, and cultural focus. In addition to providing access to a wide variety of books, we foster healthy attitudes towards reading and help our participants expand their self-concept through awareness of the opportu

nities reading provides. We also engage the community in holistic literacy activities that reflect our community’s rich ethnic, racial, and cultural heritage, giving us deeper access to examining issues that are relevant to our lives. We believe that students deserve an opportunity to read their way into their futures.

We chose "Plot Twist" as our 2026 theme for a reason. 🌳

The moment is here.

After 20+ years in North Philadelphia, we're launching Read, Dream, Achieve: Books Are Just the Beginning – a campaign to build a three-story literacy center that will change what's possible for kids in our community.

More details coming soon. The best chapter is just beginning. 📖

We are so grateful for the Phillies and their many years of support - especially Mary Ann and Ian, who make the day memorable for us all! And also a big thank you to our friend the Phillie Phanatic, and all the fans who brought books to the Phanatic About Reading day at Citizens Bank Park!

With your generosity, we were able to give 809 books to kids and families in North Philly and across our region ✨
