So many students don't like to read, but I hope that by giving them a wide variety of books, more of them will find the love of reading. With this wide variety of books, I believe that students from kindergarten to 8th grade will find a book they enjoy. \r\n\r\nIf I can get one student to pick up a new book and find enjoyment from it, I will consider it a success. I know that more than one will enjoy these books, and that is due to wonderful people like you.","fullyFundedDate":1764737103367,"projectUrl":"project/stock-our-library-shelves/9872989/","projectTitle":"Stock Our Library Shelves","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Martin","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp4312297_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1536602378379","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/4312297"},{"teacherId":9747381,"projectId":8776796,"letterContent":"Thank you so much for donating to my classroom this year, to not only support my current students, but also students for years to come!
