A wide range of books for young teens and adults will be featured at the book fairs, including mystery and adventure novels, fantasy trilogies, sports guides, manga, and the latest bestsellers from more than 150 publishers.  Parents, children, teachers, and the community are invited to attend. 

Fair attendees can also help build classroom libraries by purchasing books for teachers through the Classroom Wish List program. If you are out of town or can't make it to the book fairs, you can also help support the schools by shopping online at http://bit.ly/Lfoct12.  The online book fair will be available October 3 – 23.
