Research shows that having access to a wide range of books in the classroom plays an important role in children's reading success. Yet it can take years of a teacher's valuable time to assemble the right kinds of books for an effective library. That's why nationally renowned literacy expert Phyllis C. Hunter has teamed with Scholastic to create the Phyllis C. Hunter Classroom Libraries – model libraries consisting of 100 great books per grade level that serve students' reading needs.
Based on years of teaching, objective research, and work as an advisor on the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, the Phyllis C. Hunter K-6 Classroom Libraries have become an enormous success. Now, Scholastic is proud to announce the new Phyllis C. Hunter Libraries for 7th to 9th Graders.
