Reading Books for Building Self-Esteem and Character

My students need 70 paperback books, in a very wide range of reading levels, from "Clifford, The Big Red Dog" to "Palph S. Mouse" to "Animal Farm".

This project expired on September 2, 2008.

I am the librarian that serves grades 7-12 plus Life Skills for one entire building. As a result of having such a diverse range of reading levels within one building, and our school is rural with 2 buildings total, I am forced to get only a few books in each level in order to accommodate all of the student's reading needs.

Students have been asking for a greater variety of reading materials. I have been purchasing some out of my own pocket and students have commented that they enjoy reading the books and would like to now read about specific subjects or specific authors that are not on the AR list.

I need a larger amount and variety of books for all reading levels to meet the great variety of reading levels represented by our students so they can be served in a timely and professional manner.

Your help will allow me to assist students with a variety of reading levels by providing students with books that I have to borrow from elsewhere which discourages them from wanting to come to the library.
