My Project

My students are enthusiastic, curious, and eager to learn! They thrive on engaging stories that spark their imagination and help them connect with emotions, friendships, and problem-solving. Through books, they develop a love of reading, critical thinking, and empathy.

I am requesting a selection of engaging books, including beloved characters like Pete the Cat, Grumpy Monkey, Bruce the Bear, and The Pigeon.

These books will help foster a love for reading while teaching valuable lessons about emotions, perseverance, and creativity. These books encourage students to express emotions and engage in storytelling, because they have familiar characters. By donating, you are helping to provide access to high-quality literature that will spark joy and curiosity in young readers.
