I founded my blog, Watch. Connect. Read., because I observed how my students connected with book trailers and author interviews. I wanted a central place to showcase book-related videos and inspire fellow educators to incorporate media in their booktalks and lessons. Therefore, it comes as no surprise I am a HUGE fan of Scholastic Book Fairs® Author Videos.*

For someone new to running a Scholastic Book Fair, these events offer an opportunity to create a meaningful experience for readers and their supporters in your schools. Veterans will discover many specialized workshops to expand the power of your events. I recommend attending a fun and FREE Scholastic Book Fair in-person workshop or webinar to:
• Learn how to get students excited about reading.
• Preview what’s new in children’s literature and coming to your Fair.
• Create a publicity plan using social media, advertising tools, and innovation to increase
attendance.
I think networking with other Scholastic Book Fair enthusiasts in this environment makes for a stronger, longer relationship with Scholastic Book Fairs.
#4 Book Fairs App

Whenever I visit a Scholastic Book Fair, I always use the app and tell others about how it can enhance the Book Fair experience.
You can scan or search thousands of Book Fair titles to learn details such as: • Book summaries
• Videos and podcasts
• Awards and honors
• Book recommendations
Plus, you can nd recommendations fo create wish lists, and even make purchases for books available online.
