Collaboration between ADC Kid and

Hampton Publishing House, LLC

In November 2015, ADC Kid and Hampton Publishing House, LLC started meeting monthly due to a common goal of working with children. Each company realized that the other company had the same amount a dedication to helping children excel in reading through imagination, education, and health initiatives. It is the hope of each entity that children are empowered to read books, interact with their favorite authors, and live a healthy lifestyle while doing so. This Children’s Book Festival is one of many initiatives that the state of New Jersey will see from these companies in regards to educating the youth. Feel free to stay updated on what each of these companies are doing by visiting their websites at www.ADCKid.com and www.HamptonPublishingHouse.com.
