Virginia Readers' Choice Book Titles

Help me give my students access to the 2023/2024 Virginia Readers' Choice books.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Carmona's classroom raised $202

This project is fully funded

My Project

Access to the Virginia Readers' Choice books will allow our students to participate in the voting contest and have a voice in choosing the winner.

The primary titles are always a great read aloud and are easy to pair with a class activity for a more meaningful experience with the book.

Our students will love having copies of these titles available in their school library and seeing them on display to check out. Students love to read them and vote for their favorites.

The Virginia Readers' Choice award is given to books that the students have chosen so it is exciting to have an opportunity to add these titles to our library collection.
