The materials available for purchase at the book fair were not selected by the Marion County School District. We encourage parents to be involved as much as possible in the decision-making process regarding the book fair purchases of their child(ren). The link below will take you to a list of books that may be available for purchase from our book fair from October 27-November 3. This list represents most of the books that will be at the book fair. Some books may not be available, and there may be some books—not in this preview—sent as substitutes. If you have any questions or would like to opt out of having your child attend the fair, please contact Ms. Jappinga at [email protected].
