It’s time, once again, for the Scholastic Book Fair. This is an exciting time of the year when we get to buy new books. We’ll be running the fair in the library from Wednesday, September 12 to Friday, September 21. Every year as I unpack and set up the fair I look through the books to see what’s new and this year’s batch of books look pretty fun. So come on in and look to see what you can buy for yourself or for someone special. Remember, “a book is a gift you can open again and again” (Garrison Keillor, 1942 -).This year you can also shop our Online Book Fair. Go to the website (search by state and town or just enter our zip code, 89025) and shop away . Although it’s not as fun as actually holding the books and looking through the pages, there are more selections online than they can actually pack on the truck to send to our school. There are books for all levels, preschool to adults. You can send wish lists and eCards to family and friends that live far away and they can buy too. Whatever you buy online gets shipped to the school at the end of the fair. That way you don’t have to pay shipping.
I appreciate all that you buy at the book fair. Not only do you put great, fun literature into the lives of your kids, but the profits from the fair go to buying more books for the library, thus putting more literature into the lives of your kids.
