My Project

In an effort to keep my students reading, I want to have the books they request available to them. The students are super sweet and ask very nicely, but without a budget to buy the books, I need Donors Choose help.

Investigators and Cat Kid are very popular and many students are waiting for the latest in the series to be available to them.

I want to keep their enthusiasm in completing a series alive. It's not always easy to finish a book, let alone a series. Please help me encourage them to keep reading!
