My Students

There are lots of books out there that are super exciting for girls, but what about boys?

My students love to read, but many have a hard time selecting a book that is interesting to them.

They start out browsing a book and just can't connect to the main character, or follow the plot. Boys need different types of reading materials to hook them and keep them interested.

My Project

Studies show that boys need books that are visually appealing, practical with information they can use, main characters they can relate to, and funny books with mischief! These types of books are usually in high demand and hard to locate and hold on to!

Help us build our library with high interest books that are enticing and fun to read!

Give all students the opportunity to enjoy their reading and connect to it. Together, we can get EVERYONE reading!
