Help me give my students the books they have been clamoring for all year.

My Project

My students have been begging for the books in this project all school year. While my budget and the kindness of my PTA has made it so I can get many of the books that we need, I have to prioritize nonfiction books that are not available through Donor'sChoose.org.

It is my priority as a librarian to give my students books that they will love.

When they have books they've requested, it gives them a sense of ownership over the library, which helps their reading progress.

Thank you so much for considering donating to my students!
