    The geek in me was overjoyed when my mom bought me a whole set of Encyclopedia Britannica when I was a kid. I was so overwhelmed with all the books that I didn’t know where to start. And now, the books have been donated to a local school in our neighborhood. The fulfillment in donating the books to those who are in need is just incredible.
