A teacher can never have too many books! Many teachers offer books for students to read during their free time. Reading is a fun and educational activity that many students enjoy. If going out and buying books sounds like too much of a chore for you, getting a gift card for a teacher to use at a bookstore may be the perfect plan. Even if the classroom is overflowing with books, I am sure the teacher can find a book or two from their personal list to read.
