  • Jeez Louise. When I was a kid, and a teacher, I loved the book fairs. Spent waaaay too much on classroom libraries but the kids asked and I provided. I got so much joy from it. Everyone needs to see themselves represented. I believe people will read and continue to as long as they find someone or something they can identify with in the reading. Take that away and we have nothing. People will then not read and will therefore be ignorant over time of resources and knowledge they should have. I loved reading and I made sure my students always knew that. I made sure my ESOL kids had something fun and on their level. The Scholastic Book Fairs helped with that every year. I am both poorer and richer for this.
