My Project

This project is for new picture books for my student in the school library. As the Library Media Specialist, I always want new books for my students to read and get excited about reading. This project has several new picture books that we will use for class time and for the student to get to check out and read for years to come!

It is so powerful for students to have new books to read through the school year!

This project will give new, fun, and engaging stories for my readers to enjoy for years to come! Thank you for any support towards this project for my students!

Mrs. Lester will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by August 2.
