What is a Book Fair?
Imagine a fun-filled celebration of reading and a school bookshop rolled into one…that's a Scholastic Book Fair!
Pupils can browse and buy books from our mobile cases containing hundreds of the newest and best children's books.
Not only is it the perfect way to help children develop a lifelong love of reading, it also offers schools the chance to earn FREE BOOKS for their libraries and classrooms.
