Help me give my students more books that they really want to read!

My Project

Ms. Daphne's high school Language Arts students are clamoring for more books to read! These requested books are the next books in a series, recommended by friends, or newly discovered author favorites.

What a great "problem" - these students are reading faster than we can keep up with!

Graphic novels, Young Adult mysteries, and other popular titles, and more - help us get these books into the students' hands!

With your help, we can spark the students' interest in new books and keep them reading. Let's stock up those classroom shelves!
