Session description

BookBeasts are literacy trading cards that encourage students to explore new topics, authors, genres, and series in the library. Some of the cards’ characters were created using an AI art generator. Other characters were derived from the original artwork of elementary students as young as kindergarten. The trading cards include characters that motivate learners to engage in inquiry, research, and other literacy skills.
