My Project

I love reading books to children and they love listening and learning! For 19 years I have been in the same classroom with the world largest, heaviest and ugliest book shelf attached to my wall. This spring when packing up for the summer I was finally able to have it removed and was thrilled.... except now I don't have a place to house my vast book collection!

The book shelf requested will keep my books safe and organized and also not taking up a lot of space!

This allows my classroom to have more space for learning and playing. I am looking forward to starting to the school year with more space for activities for the school's youngest learners.
