Our school is hosting a Follett Book Fair! December 2-6
Supporting a love for reading is critical to student success. Supporting your school is just as important. The Follett Book Fair encourages your child's reading habits, builds their personal libraries and raises funds for the school, all at the same time.
What makes Follett Book Fairs different?
Follett has been supporting schools for more than 140 years which means you can expect an awesome selection of titles, from a wide range of publishers. These are the books your children want to read. See the attached flyer for some examples. Please note, prices do not include sales tax. Visit follettgift.com to purchase a Follett gift card for your child.
Don’t forget to send your student with enough money to cover sales tax. Support your school and the avid readers in your family by visiting the book fair. We hope to see you there! All sales benefit the school. Find out more about Follett Book Fairs online at follettbookfairs.com.
