The Right Book at the Right Time
“Any book that helps a child to form a habit of reading, to make reading one of his deep and continuing
needs, is good for him.”* Helping kids become readers is not just about opening a book; it’s about opening
the right book—the book that gets them so excited to read they can’t put it down; the book that helps them see
new places, understand new concepts, and makes them feel a part of something bigger. They know their inter-
ests best, which is why at Scholastic Book Fairs
®
we believe strongly in giving kids access to thousands of great
books so they can find the one that’s just right for them.
Over the summer, access to books can become difficult for many families, and yet continuing the daily habit of
reading is imperative to ensuring students’ progress doesn’t fall victim to the dreaded summer slide.
That’s where a Scholastic Buy One, Get One Free Book Fair comes in. Not only will your students be able to
choose from a vast selection of titles before the summer vacation starts, they will be able to get twice as many
for the same price. It’s a win-win that preserves all of the win-wins you’ve already achieved throughout the school
year, taking the sentiment “Keep up the Good Work” to a whole other level, and their reading success, too.
