My Project

Getting kids to read can sometimes be a challenge. Finding books that grab their attention that are also approved for classroom reading is getting more difficult.

I am looking for a solution, and I think humorous story The Willoughbys might be part of the solution.

If you've read this children's classic from Lois Lowry, you know what's in store! I would love to do a reading unit on this story with my students this year.

In order to effectively do a close read of The Willoughbys in my classroom, every student will need their own copy of this book. Help me make this happen!
