My students will truly benefit from a new and updated library. Unfortunately our school and classroom libraries are outdated. Many of the books are weathered and uninviting. In a time when children are engaged in the new app on their tablet, newer and updated books like One Crazy Summer and Number the Stars will be an engaging change. I want my students to visit their classroom library and feel the same excitement one feels when entering a Barnes and Noble! We are asking for sets of books like Out of My Mind, Poppy, and The Lemonade War... decisions, decisions! So often, They will increase their love for reading at such a crucial age. Not only will reading assist in their academic growth for this year, but for years to come!
