My Project

As a middle school teacher, I strive to inspire my students to think critically, creatively, and with an open mind. One of the most exciting ways I do this is by introducing them to the fascinating world of Greek mythology. These timeless stories—full of gods, goddesses, heroes, and epic adventures—serve as both a window into the past and a mirror for understanding human nature today.

To bring these ancient myths to life in my classroom, I’m seeking your support to provide a collection of engaging, accessible Greek mythology books for my students.

Whether it’s reading about the mighty Zeus or the daring hero Hercules, these books will spark their imagination and deepen their understanding of literature, history, and culture.

Your generous donation will help us build a classroom library filled with a variety of Greek mythology books, from modern retellings of ancient myths to illustrated collections that will capture the attention of young readers. With these books, my students will have the opportunity to explore many important themes.
