For the Love of Reading!

Help me give my students the love of having the hardcovers of their favorite books to read! These books and book sets were requested by my classroom in the beginning of the year.

My Project

My fourth graders have a love of reading! I've noticed that my students were constantly asking for more graphic novels or having to wait for one friend to finish one book before reading it for themselves.

I thought having a variety of graphic novels and autobiographies would be fun for my students to have to read at school and at home.

I feel like having these books would help my students continue their love of reading and keep them engage with books they asked for and enjoy. For many of my students the only time they have access to books is when they are in school.
