Pizza Hut Launches Miniature "Little Hut Libraries" for Book Month

PLANO, Texas, Sept. 29, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Pizza Hut has launched a new initiative to celebrate National Book Month and National Pizza Month by transforming its iconic red-roofed restaurants into miniature "Little Hut Libraries" across the country. This partnership with the Little Free Library nonprofit aims to make books more accessible to communities and bring a touch of Pizza Hut nostalgia to neighborhoods.

For decades, Pizza Hut has been a champion of reading, inspiring a love of books through its BOOK IT! program, which has been running since 1984. This initiative has encouraged generations of readers by pairing reading achievements with the brand's delicious pizzas. Now, Pizza Hut is taking this commitment to the next level by teaming up with Little Free Library to create "Little Hut Libraries," which will be placed in neighborhoods nationwide.

Each "Little Hut Library" will be a miniature version of a Pizza Hut restaurant, complete with the recognizable red roof. These book exchanges will be stocked with books and a limited number of Personal Pan Pizza gift cards, allowing readers to enjoy a free pizza as they participate in the book exchange. The initiative is part of Pizza Hut's ongoing mission to support reading and create memorable experiences for guests.

Little Free Library, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, has been building communities through its network of volunteer-led book-sharing boxes for over a decade. With more than 200,000 registered Little Free Libraries worldwide in all 50 states, 128 countries, and on all seven continents, the organization has shared over 500 million books. This partnership with Pizza Hut is a natural fit, as both organizations share a commitment to making books more accessible and fostering a love of reading.

Pizza Hut, founded in 1958 in Wichita, Kansas, has earned a reputation as a trailblazer in innovation with the creation of iconic pizzas like the Original Pan® and Original Stuffed Crust®. In 1994, Pizza Hut pizza was the very first online food order, and today, the brand continues to lead the way in the digital and technology space with over half of its transactions coming from digital orders.
