The Description

With these funds I will purchase books for a classroom library that will be available to all students. Students often avoid reading because the only books that are available are not the books that they are interested in. I am planning to purchase more graphic novels, realistic fiction novels, and children's books to facilitate conversations about leadership. Books and series that I plan to purchase include:

Matilda by Roald Dahl

Harry Potter Series by J. K. Rowling

Bluford Series

Big Nate Series

Maus by Art Speilgelman

March Trilogy By John Lewis, Andrew Aydin, and Nate Powell

Pete the Cat Series

Twilight Series by John Greene

Paper Towns by John Greene

The Fault in Our Stars by John Greene

Monster by Walter Dean Myers

Fallen Angels by Walter Dean Myers

Bad Boy: A Memoir by Walter Dean Myers

Somewhere in the Darkness by Walter Dean Myers

The Greatest: Muhummad Ali by Walter Dean Myers

Hoops by Walter Dean Myers

Game by Walter Dean Myers

Little Elliot Series

Back Up Plan

If we do not reach our goal I will purchase as many books that the provided funds can buy. No matter the amount, every dollar and cent will be spent on books.
