Hampton Book Fair

                                                                  By Gigi S. & Joey P.

       The Hampton book fair ran through April 22-26.  The book fair was a chance for kids to get and try new books.  Students went to the book fair on their library day.  It was a fun way to earn books. If parents weren't busy, they could also volunteer.  Yes, the books were not free–paperbacks are usually under $10, and most of the hard back books are under $20, but if students did not need or want books they didn't need to get anything.  If they weren’t able to get anything, they could still get a book from Mrs. Schnirel.
    About a week before students got a magazine about some books, but there were lots more available there.  Students also got a wish list to write down some books they wanted and the prices to show to their parents/guardians.  Students could also use an Ewallet to purchase books.  Many students were looking forward to the Book Fair.

“My least favorite part of the book fair is the books are kind of expensive and my favorite part is I get to buy books,” said Paige S., a fourth grade student.
 “My favorite part of the book fair is probably the selection of books and my least favorite part is the high prices,” said Maya L., another fourth grade student.
The Spring Book fair was a great success and lots of fun!
