Unicorns, Fairies and Books, Oh My!

Help me give my students new fantasy books about mermaids and other fantastical creatures.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Roland's classroom raised $298

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our library has had an increase in the number of students who are looking for high fantasy books, specifically, books about mermaids. Since beginning in the media center I have been working on building certain collections that peak students interest. I have also recently started to generify my fiction collection and our fantasy section is thin.

Students are asking me daily for fantasy books and I want to provide them with new, exciting titles they will be interested in.

This project is to help me get those titles on my shelves. My whole goal is to get students reading and the more books I can have, the better!
