My Project
Recently, I noticed that all of our Curious George books have really gotten old and most of them are falling apart. There is more tape on the books than there is spine currently.
Unfortunately, after much debating I realized that it is time to get rid of our current Curious George books.
I do wish to replace these books because the students do really enjoy reading about Curious George.
Having books with familiar friends like Curious George really encourages students to read more. I want my students to have the books that they enjoy but we also need books that are in proper condition and not falling apart.
