My Project

Do you love to read? Our students do! I am requesting picture books for our school's library. I think these books will really spark some of our student's interests. Our school library really needs updating on our books. Our library only gets a small amount of money for books every year. Getting new books such as "The Wild Robot Escapes" and other picture books will help excite our students to read more. Also, our students use reading as a getaway for their mental health.

Reading brings a whole new world to a child.

Our students need new books to help with their reading comprehension and to reach their Accelerated Reader goal. Our students also use reading to take a mental break and get away from the world for a while.
