My students are mostly middle-class, with a small percentage of low-income, at-risk students. We have learned over the years that less and less teenagers are reading for pleasure. My goal is to give my students a positive experience with books so they will be inspired to want to continue reading for pleasure. The books I have chosen are excellent stories that will draw them in and make them want to live within their pages! Many of my "nonreaders" are beginning to see reading is enjoyable!
