"...helped make my reading level higher."

-Desirelle, 7th grade

 

"...gives you encouragement to read because you're with a group of people. You're never embarrassed that you are a reader."

-Tyree, 7th grade

 

"...makes reading even more fun because you are reading for a cause - to help people."

-Sarah, 7th grade

 

"Ever since I joined the Need to Read Book Club, I have not been embarrassed to say that I love to read. I also have a good reason to read because my reading helps other people."
