My Project

Teens grapple with issues most adults never could have imagined at their age. Too much of the information teens ingest comes from social media. Teens gravitate toward subject matter that is relatable, and they seek places to hear their own voices. Help me put special books within reach for my students that will be interesting and will get them off technology for a while. When teens hear another voice echoing their own fears, thoughts and concerns about "coming of age" they gain insight and reassurance.

I want to lure teens to read great literature that will hook them on books for a lifetime.

These titles will provide an opportunity to enrich the lives of teens.
