My students are in need of books! They are eager to learn, but they need the access to books that meet their independent reading level needs. I have readers that span from k-11 grade, so we need a library to help us narrow the gap! Some of my struggling readers love the graphic novels, while the more advanced ones are longing for series books like The Hunger Games, Maze Runner, and the lovely John Green books! These books will give my students the library they need to continue flaming their curiosity while helping us narrow our reading gaps! Your help will give my students a library that they want to access, with books that are culturally and socially relatable to who they are. Students will be able to use these books for independent reading at school and at home so that we can continue working to narrow our reading gaps, but also to ignite a love for books!
