Trendsetters are Reading Manga

Help me give my students new opportunities to enjoy reading. These books are popular because the students have requested them. Giving them what they want to read, keeps them reading.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Smith's classroom raised $312

My Project

This project will expand my reading section for my Manga Lovers. This section is the most popular section in the library. Books are flying off the shelf. I am trying to keep up with the students wants and needs when it comes to reading material.

Graphic Novels are the way to get nonreaders to read.

I am excited to see students wanting to read, I just need to keep thier interest by getting new material for them to escape to when they want to read a new book. The students will want to read more with this new selection.
