Sometimes students are too afraid of making a mistake that they don't try, or they start to struggle with a skill and give up before they give themselves a chance.\r\nThe books have also been great for pulling out to read when I've noticed a problem with a social or character skill, such as respecting property or using kind words.

I find books are so important to enrich a classroom and the student's minds. As an educator at a Title I school getting books for the classroom library takes a lot of garage sale hunting and begging. \r\n\r\nYour donations have helped diversify the library. I have had several students so excited to see books about people like them. Whether it be African-American, a divorced household, or a parent in jail these books let them know that they are not alone in the world. My students are required to have a silent reading book at their desks at all time. When they finish early, or need a break, they can read. For a few reluctant readers, these books have ignited a flame for reading that they did not have before.
