The books have been wonderful and now we have full sets of books for our curriculum libraries. Prior to this project, when we encountered a lesson series were we had a missing book, our only option was play a Youtube video of a reading of it. It was less personal and a bit disruptive to stop the video in order to ask clarifying questions. Now that we have the physical books we can read at our own pace, feel and see the physical book and take our time in answering questions about the text. It's also nice as for the example photos, we read the book we got The Box Turtle. Students were able to point to the words in the text for the sounds they heard and when they went to do their independent writing activity they could pass the book around to look at it to get ideas about what the could write about.
