Book Basket Glow-Up

Help me give my students books that are more modern and higher level.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hartman's classroom raised $242

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our classroom library is ready for a glow-up! After lots of love (and little hands), many of our books are worn, outdated, or missing pages.

This project will help us refresh our book baskets with engaging, diverse, and high-interest titles that match students’ growing reading skills and spark their love of reading.

New books will support independent reading, partner work, and small group time—plus bring lots of joy! A fresh selection will make our library more inviting and accessible, helping every student feel excited to explore stories and grow as readers. Thank you for supporting our little bookworms!
