Book Fair

Reading is the most important skill you can teach a child. Of all the skills children learn, it is the one you can influence the most. We invite you to visit our Scholastic Book Fair and experience a celebration of reading that provides families the opportunity to get involved in a universal mission: encouraging kids to read every day so they can lead better lives.

Our Scholastic Book Fair is part of an exciting reading event that brings to school a wonderful selection of fun, engaging, and affordable books kids want to read. Giving kids access to good books and the opportunity to choose their own books will motivate them to read more. And like most acquired skills, the more kids practice reading, the better they’ll get.

All proceeds from the book fair help the PTO provide even more books for the classrooms and the school library. 

The Book Fair is open to students on Thursday, October 10th and Friday, October 11th from 9:00 - 3:00.  It will also be open for families on Thursday, October 10th from 6:00 - 7:30 in the multipurpose room.

Bingo For Books

As part of the Scholastic Book Fair at Lindeneau School, the PTO will be hosting Bingo for Books on Thursday, October 10th at 6:30. Come join us for this FREE family event that promises to be a lot of fun! Prizes include Scholastic books for all grade levels. The Book Fair will also be open until 7:30 during Bingo Night for students and parents to purchase books.  As always, we thank you for your support and hope to see you for bingo!

Wimpy Kid 8 Presale

Our book fair is offering a specially priced paperback edition of Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Hard Luck for presale.  It is the eighth book in the popular series by Jeff Kinney and will go on sale November 5th.  Presales will be shipped directly to the school and delivered to your child.  For more details or to order see this form.
