Dare to Dream, Dare to Read

Help me give my students books of their choosing that will help build their love of reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Carson's classroom raised $342

This project is fully funded

My Project

Please help grant my students' reading wish list. I asked my students what they would love to read if I could grant their book wish list. Students are so happy to see their reading wishes come true.

Whether it is a comic book, romance novel, or historical book my students are elated to see a book that matches their interest and is for them to take home and add to their very own bookshelf.

My students will be able to use their books in and out of class to spark their love of reading.
