Diverse Universe

Help me give my students a diverse library one genre at a time!

My Project

My students are becoming phenomenal, avid readers. They love to read new titles and learn about new cultures, experiences, and subjects through their love of reading. All students should have access to a wide variety of books to foster the love of reading.

Having a diverse bookshelf will not only help my students grow as readers but also as individuals within a diverse world.

The books available to them should help them connect to the world with a personal twist. Their limit is only limited by the size of the bookshelf!
