In all 27 books were included in the book packages.  Some days two books were included - and on some days some complementary items provided additional interest.  For example on the first day Peter H. Reynolds - Word Collector was included with a set of word cards for learning Dolch words, words from the child's current reading instructional material, and some Spanish words that he is learning (colors, numbers, animals).
Other days included other items along with the books -- not all days.  Most days the clear focus was on a favorite book read during the year or a new to the reader book.
