Falling In Love With Books

Help me give my students a variety of books so that they to can fall in love with reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Carter's classroom raised $629

My Project

Growing up, reading was my favorite thing to do. It allowed me to escape reality and travel to unknown places and go on quirky adventures. My students are constantly asking if they can read a book, no matter what time of the day it is.

I want my students to continue to fall in love with reading.

Getting books in ther hands of my students is very important and with the variety of books I have selected, I know they can find a book (or series) that captures thier attention.
