My students are inner-city children from the South Bronx. Most of my students are Latino, African American and recent African immigrants. My students are passionate about stories. When I read to my students they are enraptured. My students have a very limited understanding of what books are actually out there in the world, however. Most of them have never seen a bookstore. They only see the books that we have for them in the classroom. Unfortunately, our classroom library has lost much of its luster. Due to changes in the economy, we have not had a big influx of books in almost three years. In addition, my school doesn't have a library for them to access books outside the classroom. There is a public library close by, but many students do not feel safe going there. My classroom library is therefore the only option for most of them to feed their reading lives. I know that my students will read as much as any other child-- or more-- if given the chance.
