keep An award and a showcase listing by two fairly substantial bodies. Poor article, but it's an interesting idea (Disclaimer: Some years ago I was a published researcher in this same field) and the coverage paid so far seems to scrape our bar for WP:N. Can you expand upon the "It's just not notable" rationale?

KEEP. Gee whiz, taking 5 minutes to read beyond the poorly written-poorly sourced article to determine whether or not
Books That Grow was notable reveals - via coverage in the fields of education, ed-tech, crowdsourcing, literature, and mainstream media - it is. I've edited the article and provided citations that support my KEEP recommendation.
Keep: The present article is still promotional. It has testimonials in it, for one thing. If the nomination got the article improved, that's a good thing. Articles that advertise and don't substantiate their claims are a bad thing. (And yes, it's not very controversial to say that low literacy adults are an underserved population.)
