Your gift has allowed us to significantly expand our classroom library and provide a wider selection of books for our young readers.\r\n\r\nThe excitement in the room when I first set out the new books was unforgettable. My students, still in their coats and backpacks, immediately rushed to the library area, eager to dive into the new stories. A group of my boys started a book exchange centered around the Pokémon chapter books, which captured their attention right away. These new additions have helped them move beyond graphic novels and immerse themselves in chapter books, often reading for hours at a time. It's been amazing to witness their growing love for reading!\r\n\r\nOur new National Geographic books have also sparked increased curiosity and engagement. The students are thrilled to learn about different places and animals, and they get so excited when they find connections between the books and topics we're studying in science or social studies. Just the other day, a student beamed with excitement as he rushed over to show me a book about wildfires—exactly what we had been discussing in class. His enthusiasm was contagious, and it's a perfect example of how your donation is making learning come alive for them.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful for your support and generosity. You've made a lasting impact on our classroom, making reading and learning more enjoyable than ever before.
