Books Needed!

Help me give my students Mo Willems books and Dav Pickley books to enjoy.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I am requesting Mo Willems books for my classroom library. Mo Willems books are new, exciting, and fun to read. I check out books from the school library, but they limit teachers to 10 books. We have an author of the month. We study an author each month. Next month we are going to study Mo Willems and my students love it when I read books such as "Let's Go for a Drive: Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus". We need more Mo Willems books! My students love these books because they are funny read-alouds. My students and I would love and enjoy these awesome books. We can't wait to begin our own Mo Willems collection. We would also appreciate it if we would get Dog Man books as well.

Help us create a Mo Willlems classroom library with fun read-alouds and engaging books that students will enjoy for many years!

Thank you for helping with my classroom project. My students and I appreciate everything that this foundation and your generosity have given us. Thank you for your kindness, donations, and support.
