Beloved Characters for Classroom Library

Help me give my students books for our classroom library featuring some of our favorite characters.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Puglisi's classroom raised $165

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students love picking out books from our classroom library. I have recently updated the library with Jan Brett and Arthur books. Now, I would like to add some more favorite characters to our collection.

These books feature the beloved characters of Madeline, Corduroy, Clifford, and more.

I have a few of these books in my class library, but I would like to add more for students to choose from. Students like to pick books they are familiar with. Instead of reading the same story over and over again, I would like to expand their reading with more choices from the same characters. This will give them the comfort of the familiar characters, but expose them to new stories. These books also have a great variety from stories that are to be read to students in a read aloud to ready to read books perfect for beginning readers to ones for more advanced readers. My students love their reading choice time, and would be so excited for more choice.
