My Project

I want to inspire independent readers with fascinating biographies about influential figures from around the globe! Featuring people who have made a huge impact on the world and illustrations that bring their stories to life, this multicultural collection celebrates progress, perseverance and diversity—even in the face of adversity. Library includes twelve paperback books that would be a great addition to our classroom library. We will be working on researching influential figures and writing about them. These books will come in handy and will really benefit us as we work on our projects.
