Ethan and Choco’s Book Club – Providing hospitalized kids with high-quality books and read-aloud experiences.
"ETHAN  &  CHOCO'S  BOOK  CLUB
The goal of Ethan &  Choco's Book Club (ECBC) is to make access to books and reading part of the everyday care that kids receive at CHOC Children's Hospital.
Currenrly, ECBC is doing the following at CHOC:
1. Offering bedside reading by trained volunteers to patients, via ECBC's "Read-Aloud Wagon" that boasts high-quality literature for all ages.
2. Giving away new books to patients in isolation via ECBC's mobile Gifting Library Cart.
3. Distributing books to patients at monthly parties in the hospital lobby and at CHOC's Outpatient Infusion Center:
4. Gifting a "Read+Think+Thrive Bag" (mini-library of 10 new books and crafting supplies) to kids at CHOC newly diagnosed with cancer.
5. Hosting BOO-KS for Treats annually on Halloween, where CHOC patients and siblings trick-or-treat for new, high-quality Halloween books
6. Launching Teens Thrive Book Club, a virtual book club for teenagers battling cancer at CHOC and beyond"

"ECBC's long-term goals are to someday build a permanent, comprehensive lending library at CHOC; offer a read aloud to every patient every day in the hospital; and be able to give a Read+Think+Thrive Bag to every new cancer diagnosis in the U.S.

Ethan was diagnosed with High Risk Acute lymphoblastic Leukemia in October 2014 at 7  years old and  finished treatment in February 2018. While being treated at CHOC, Ethan noticed that books and reading were missing  from patients' hospital experience, especially the oncology patients on the 5th floor. Along with his mom, he founded ECBC in December 2015 to make sure that hospitalized kids receive the tremendous cognitive and social benefits of
reading that help kids to thrive through treatment and beyond."
