My Project

Our school library is a place where students discover new worlds, build confidence, and develop a lifelong love of reading. We would love to add a collection of engaging unicorn-themed books to our shelves to spark students’ imaginations and encourage them to choose books they are excited to read. Our awesome students are begging for all things unicorn!

Unicorn stories invite children into magical adventures while reinforcing themes of friendship, kindness, courage, and believing in yourself.

For many students, finding a book that matches their interests is the first step toward becoming a confident, enthusiastic reader. These books will provide fun, accessible choices that support vocabulary, comprehension, and independent reading.

With your support, we can bring even more magic to our library and give students stories they will enjoy reading, sharing, and revisiting. Thank you for helping us create a joyful library where every child can find a book that inspires them!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
