4. BOOK FAIR INFORMATION

• Our first Book Fair of the school year will be November 4 – 7.

• On Wednesday, the Book Fair will open at 7:45am for a special Book Fair Event – Donuts & Grown-Ups.
• That event will start at 7:45am and end at 8:30am. The intent of Donuts & Grown-Ups is to provide an opportunity for parents (or another trusted adult) to read with their child in our school gym (and enjoy a tasty donut together!). Parents can get a book with their child from the Book Fair or bring a book from home. Everyone is invited and there is no obligation to purchase a book from the Book Fair.  See flyer below.
• The Book Fair closes at 4:00pm every day during the duration of the Book Fair.
• If you would like to make a donation to the library for the purchasing of library books, adding books from the Book Fair to the school library, or for purchasing books for students who are economically disadvantaged, you may do so by seeing Sheliah Saluone in the main office.
• If you have any questions about the Book Fair, please contact our school librarian Launa Naylor – launan@provo.edu.
