I want our students to fall in love with reading. I've chosen a variety of books that will allow students to escape from the stress of this year and find refuge in a book. These books will increase engagement and circulation in the library and help develop a culture of reading throughout the school. Students need to see themselves in the books they're reading. Books act as either windows or mirrors. Representation matters. From manga to Spanish editions, these books will spark a lifelong love of reading for ALL students.
