I believe that physical books engage students in a more intimate way than digital books. When my current Patina books started to fall apart, I will admit I panicked! Books are so expensive, and with the new Indiana law that eliminates book rental, finding the money to replace them is harder than ever. \r\n\r\n\r\nPatina is the second book in The Track Series by Jason Reynolds. He is an award-winning author who is loved and \"read\" by kids all over the world. He tackles difficult concepts such as grief, anxiety, poverty, and family. This book, in particular, is significant because the female character tackles complex family structures, bullying in school, and grief. Students enjoy this book because it doesn't \"candy-coat\" real issues that they are facing in their own lives.\r\n\r\nWe are grateful for your donation so that we can continue to read Patina in our classroom.","fullyFundedDate":1742332930207,"projectUrl":"project/patina-novels-for-our-classrooms/9177997/","projectTitle":"Patina Novels for Our Classrooms","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Vaughn","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp201990_orig.jpg?crop=796,796,x0,y31&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742219743953","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/vaughnsreaders"},{"teacherId":2988645,"projectId":8519504,"letterContent":"The seeds are sprouting!\r\n\r\nWe have put together the equipment and have started planting our seeds for the science club.
