Help me give my students a high-interest read to help improve their literacy skills!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. D's classroom raised $489

My Project
This year I have a large class of Psychology students and have been looking for a captivating book for them to read as an outside reading project. If you've read it, you know The Glass Castle fits that bill!
My students are almost all just below grade level in terms of reading skills and this book is both very high-interest and - at just 288 pages - not daunting in length.
It will also vividly bring to life the everyday dysfunction of a household living with undiagnosed mental illness.
I'd like to start this project early in the next semester, so we'd very much appreciate your help with this project!
Half of students from low‑income households
