My Project

My students are energetic, curious, and full of potential—but for many of them, reading feels more like a challenge than a joy. That's why I want to bring the exciting world of Jake Maddox graphic novels into our classroom library!

These action-packed stories are perfect for reluctant readers, sports lovers, and visual learners.

The vibrant illustrations paired with fast-paced, relatable plots help students build confidence, improve fluency, and, most importantly, enjoy reading.

Graphic novels aren't just fun—they're powerful tools for literacy. They support comprehension, vocabulary development, and critical thinking skills in a format that feels accessible and exciting. By adding a variety of Jake Maddox titles to our shelves, I hope to create a reading space where every student can find something they love.

With your help, we can turn reading into something students look forward to every day. These books could be the spark that transforms a struggling reader into a lifelong learner.
