“Hosting a Scholastic Book Fair is a great opportunity to put more books into more students’ hands and add an element of excitement to reading," said Robin Lindquist, Wooster School librarian. "Browsing through the fair with their classmates got all the students talking about books which is just what I hoped for."

Each Lower School class visited the fair during the school day and filled out a wishlist to share with their parents. Students also entered raffles and a "Guess Who's Reading" contest. Guest speakers shared their favorite books with the students. After school, Wooster junior Glenn Unger read and signed copies of his recently published picture book "Keith's Courage."
