Hello! I teach Kindergarten in a very high-need, urban school. Although my students face challenges from homelessness to hunger, their eagerness to learn gives me hope for their futures. I know that their success in school and life will depend on their ability to develop strong literacy skills. Unfortunately, many of my students have very limited exposure to books. In order to succeed, my students need access to rich children's literature everyday.
