My Project

Students have specifically requested that our library add more of these series to our shelves! I am asking that you consider helping make their request a reality, while also giving students a wider array of biographies and historical books to read.

The series "Ordinary People Change the World" engages young readers with modern artistry and interesting details, inspiring them to live a life that makes a difference in the world.

I know that these books will be constantly checked out because students are hungry for such engaging, true stories. With Martin Luther King Day right around the corner, I would like to have more books that the students can check out that portray his life and legacy.

Also, my students requested more of the "I Survived" graphic novels which are immensely popular! I admire how these books teach history while keeping kids riveted with the plots and characters. All of these books would be a wonderful addition to the growing Sunrise library. I thank you in advance for supporting our school and being a part of shaping young minds.
