At Just 5 Years Old, Lucian Slade Is Spreading Stories and Building Community—One Book at a Time.
With a heart full of compassion and a mission to make a difference, Lucian is bringing Little Free Libraries to life across Palm Beach County—proving you're never too young to spark change.
Making a difference in the community:
Spreading Stories. Building Community.
One Book at a Time.
A Mom on a Mission…
In preparation for kindergarten, Lucian is also learning the importance of giving back. With the support of his mother, he launched Lucian’s Little Library to cultivate compassion, leadership, and entrepreneurial spirit through real-world action.
Focused on literacy and community service, the project reflects a deeper commitment to doing what’s right and building character from an early age.
📚 What We’re Building:
Lucian’s Little Library is more than just a box of books—it’s a movement. Created by Lucian (age 5) and his mom, this project is rooted in compassion, literacy, and entrepreneurship. We're installing officially registered Little Free Library boxes throughout South Florida to inspire kids to read, share, and give back.
Each library is:
Stocked with books for all ages—especially children’s stories
Lovingly painted and designed with heart
Placed where it brings the most joy—neighborhoods, parks, schools, shelters, and community centers
A lasting symbol of kindness, imagination, and giving
Registered and trackable on the Little Free Library app and website
Leave a book. Take a book. Spread the love.

Ways to DONATE
🍭 Skip the Candy—Build Something That Lasts 🍃
We’ve all bought the candy bars, the popcorn tins, the sugary cookies…
And while they support good causes, they’re not always great for our kids—or our communities.
What if your donation could create something healthier, more impactful, and lasting?
With Lucian’s Little Library, every dollar goes toward building a gift that keeps on giving: free books, imagination, literacy, and connection.
📚 A place where kids can grab a story instead of a snack
💡 A way to teach entrepreneurship with heart, not sugar
🌍 A tool to build stronger, smarter, more inspired communities
Your donation doesn’t just help Lucian—it helps every child who opens that little door and discovers a new world inside.
👉 Let’s trade candy for curiosity.
👉 [Support a Library Today]
We’ll be documenting our entire journey—from building and painting to placing and celebrating each library—both here and across our social media platforms.
✨ Be part of something meaningful. Help us spread stories and build community—one book at a time.
