Rachel is working on tackling illiteracy through the use of comic books/ graphic novels. She's putting together an awesome comic book club with the hopes of expanding it statewide to give children from lower income households a chance to develop their art and reading skills. Check out this link to a Doner's Choose site she put together to purchase quality books for her classroom and clubs.
