The books selected for this project are picked carefully and with close consideration. Students are given a chance to select the book they would like to read from bookshelves for our drop everything and read (D.E.A.R) program in an attempt to improve literacy. While students are given the choice to read everything from adventure to books about overcoming struggles, students that identify as LGBTQ+ are not well-represented in the already existing bookshelves. The books selected for this project will allow LGBTQ+ students to see themselves in what they are reading, which is incredibly impactful for students at a young age.
