Mrs. Burkett’s Classroom Edit display name

I have chosen fiction and nonfiction books that are on the top of every young adult must read list. Many of them also directly correlate with the literature in our textbooks and will help enhance the lessons in our curriculum. These books span various genres and will satisfy requests I've already received from students who possess a burning desire to read. By donating to my project, you might also end up purchasing a book that will potentially ignite a fire in some of the students who have not yet found their reading niche. Anyone who is a passionate reader knows how one book can be the determining factor in changing so much about your life. Your generous donation can help make that difference for my students! These books will be available for not only this year's students, but for new students to enjoy year after year. Also, many of my former students stop back into my room to see what books I have to offer. Funding this project means you will help promote reading to an endless amount of teenagers for years to come. In the words of Victor Hugo, "“To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark.” Thank you for setting my room on fire!
