Students and family members are invited to visit the book fair to shop for books, library and classroom accessories. Parents can also purchase books for their child’s teacher out of their “Wish List” boxes.

The sale is 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 10 and all week from Monday-Friday, Nov. 14-18.

All funds generated from the event directly support the South Whidbey Elementary Library Program and are used to purchase new books, materials, equipment, furniture and other items.
