My Project

As an English teacher, one of my goals is helping students develop a love of reading. My students are begging for more books about sports. They want to read, but I don't have the right books.

By supporting this project, you will give students the books they are begging for.

Books that will ignite their passion for reading. You will show them that reading is fun and that page turners are as gripping as movies. Please help me add more books about sports, so that my students get hooked on books.
