My Project

All books in this project will be placed in our school library and available for all 800+ students to check-out.

These books will help my students to dream, create, and become inspired as they cozy up and read their new library books!

Since these books will be placed in the school library, this project will serve hundreds of students each year.

All of the books in this project have been requested by students at my school. Thank you for helping my students become life long readers as they discover and find books they love to read!
