New Books!

Help me give my students new and modern book series that they will love to read!

My Project

These books will make a difference in my students ability to read books that are modern and engaging. We have so many outdated and torn books in our library and I want to replace them with new and fun book series. These are series that my students have personally requested and will love!

My goal is to replace our outdated, old books with new books my students will actually want to read!

Reading is the best way for students to expand their vocabulary and their imaginations! Help me give my students the gift of learning!
