My Project

One more story! I work with toddlers with special needs. My students are babies through 3-year-olds. I get to help to help them catch up on their development. The toddlers I work with love books. They come from homes where there isn't enough money to buy books. I want to build a book library to give toddlers exposure to books. Every two weeks when I visit them, they can exchange their book bag for another bag with different titles.

Help me provide the love of books and literacy to families who are less fortunate.

Please read to your bunny.
