Dear Parents and Families,
We are so excited about our upcoming Book Fair! This year our campus will host the Literati Book Fair on September 18-22. Students and families are welcome to shop during the hours listed below. We will also have a special family event on Sept 21 from 5 to 7 pm.
Reading is vital to leading a better life, and knowing how to read is just the beginning. Motivating young people to keep reading, comprehend what they read, and develop the ability to think creatively are the end goals.
Our Book Fair has a wide variety of titles and interests for all students and may include books for parents, siblings, and family members of all ages. Families can visit the Book Fair website at efairs.literati.com to read reviews of featured books, as well as watch book trailers and author videos. A Book Fair flyer was sent home that provides a preview of a few of the many books available to purchase. We encourage you to shop with your child or create a shopping list with your child.
With your involvement, we can inspire children to practice reading and read more often. Together, we can build readers and read for a better life.
Thank you for your support,
Elizabeth Collins, librarian
