My Project

I am hoping to add new library books to our school library! I asked student from each class and they gave me a ton of topics and requests. The books included on this list are the most popular. I am working on other lists to find acceptable books for them. I asked for mostly hardcover books, as we are an elementary school and the hardcovers tend to last better.

These are books that the students requested, or requested more of, for the library.

I want to encourage them to read. They need to be interested in the books they check out from the school library.
