Blue Books are the Best Books

Help me give my students these three amazing Blue Balliett books to read after our Chasing Vermeer book study.

This project expired on May 10, 2023.

My Project

Is there anything more lovely than becoming a part of a book? Getting so involved in a series and being able to solve a mystery with your favorite characters. My fifth-grade students are currently reading Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett for our third-quarter book study and they have fallen completely in love with the book. I would love for them to have the opportunity to read the other books in this series. While we have the first book; we do not have the other three books in this mystery. Your donation would allow my students the chance to continue reading about the characters they have fallen in love with and carry that story.
