I filled a 4th grade position that was still vacant when school began last year. I fell in love. Now I’m looping to 5th grade with my loves while also paying for another degree. We need books for our classroom library! Thank you for helping us. ❤️, Ms. Aeriale’s Readers www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
