Give thanks for great reads when our annual book fair opens on November 14th. Don't forget to check out our Scholastic Book Fair homepage to set up an eWallet for your student. This is a great way for distant friends and family to support your child's reading journey, as it works like a gift card. (It also means you don't have to send cash to school!)
You can also see an electronic copy of the book fair flyer.
