My students live in an impoverished, land-locked city with little to no room for growth. Often they have very little exposure to books other than through school. Once they read a great book though, the hunger for more thought-provoking and exciting reads is evident. The students also love owning books but often cannot afford to purchase them. They are a fun bunch of smart students but often struggle with school. Many of their parents must work late shifts, therefore the students lack at-home support for projects and homework. They need more exposure to great books in order to become life-long learners and to improve their vocabulary and thinking skills. They love to talk and socialize, and a book club would be a great opportunity for them.
