Where Has All The Creativity Gone? Art Books, Please!
Above is a link to a DonorsChoose proposal that has unfortunately not been funded. It consists of a plea for a series of books from the "Get to Know the World's Greatest Artists" series written by Mike Venezia. I had some of these books during the last school year, but they've all since disappeared due to students' feverish reading. I'd love to get the full series, but on a teacher's salary, that won't be happening any time soon. If anyone can donate a few dollars or pass it on to another generous philanthropist who could, it would be GREATLY appreciated. The proposal will be removed from the site in 43 days!
