Book Fair

Thank you for a fantabulous fair! Remember, you can still shop online through Sunday the 20th where you can find copies of things that were out of stock and not reshipped - like Volume 3 of the Dork Diaries, or the picture book Lost In The Snow. There will also be individual volumes of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Theif instead of just a bundled set. All purchaces on line count toward our fair bonuses. Thanks again for all your support, Sherie and Susan.
And thank you to the wonderful volunteers who came to help and the many students who spent their recesses chatting with us about what they liked to read. It was a very good time all around!
