He' was the featured reader at the first lady's "Read Across America" kickoff party.

Driver read his children's book, "Quickie Makes The Team."

The event took place inside the Library Of Congress.

Proceeds of Driver's book go to the Donald Driver Foundation, which combats educational inequalities and homelessness.

Read Across America Day is an annual celebration of reading held on Dr. Seuss' birthday by the National Education Association.

Couldn't he have called it something other than "Quickie?"

I've heard about his books, but can't seem to find them available in Canada. I'd like to pick them up as a collector item, as well that they seem to have a very good message, but I am not paying duty and shipping which will turn this $25 book into $40 or $50.
