My Project

Our 2nd grade students have LOVED reading the Magic Tree House series. We are trying to get a copy of Earthquakes in the Early Morning into every student's hands. We are getting close thanks to amazing donors like you!

Many of our students come from low income homes, which sometimes means luxuries like books are not available as readily.

We are hoping to put a copy of the book in every hand so the students can really grow to love reading. We thank you in advance for making this dream a reality. We are loving watching our students grow!
