Matthew Loves Books is a program created to give each baby admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit a book. This book is meant to stay at the baby’s bedside in the NICU and go home with the baby when he is able. 

Donations made to MLB are used to buy books.  Our current title is I Love You Through and Through by Bernadette Rossetti Shustak.  These books are delivered to the NICU and distributed to patients upon admission by the NICU staff.  We are in close contact with the staff in order to provide books when necessary.

Each book contains a letter explaining the program and listing the reasons why reading is so important.
