My Project

Being a school librarian and helping students discover a love for books and reading is nothing short of magical. Most of my students are drawn to graphic novels and it’s been hard to generate interest to chapter books. We currently do not have audio books available in our library so I would love to provide floor cushions, a Yoto player and Yoto cards for students to enjoy a listening center in our library and also to pair those audio books with chapter books currently in our collection. As an adult, I love listening to audio books and think this would be an amazing resource to all of my students.
