Spooky, Creepy Library Books

Help me give my students new spooky themed books for young readers and older elementary.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Roland's classroom raised $417

My Project

Spooky and scary books can be so much fun for elementary school students to explore in the library. These books offer an exciting way for young readers to experience a thrill and feel a little scared in a safe environment. Many students are drawn to the mysteries and suspense that spooky books bring, making the reading experience engaging and full of anticipation.

Students get to immerse themselves in spooky worlds where anything can happen, fostering their imagination and creativity.

Plus, it's a fantastic way to spark their interest in reading and keep them excited about discovering new stories.
