Falling in Love With Reading, One "Monster" at a Time!

Funded Oct 4, 2024

I cannot express how grateful I am for your generous donation to help fund the purchase of Monster by Walter Dean Myers for my students. These books will make a huge difference in our classroom, and I wanted to share just how excited my students are. Many of them come from low-income households where access to books and academic support is limited, and it has been challenging to foster a love of reading. But Monster is a book they’ve shown genuine interest in, and they are thrilled to dive into it.

This book is central to our extended reading and writing project for the year. It’s not just about reading; it’s about helping them explore narrative writing and develop their own stories. Your support has made it possible for us to embark on this journey, and I truly couldn’t have done it without you.

Thank you for believing in my students and for giving them this incredible opportunity. We are all so grateful!”

With gratitude,

Ms. Balyan
