    I’ve been running those book fairs since 2008 and some things have remained staples: the erasers that look like smart phones and the ones that look like Xbox controllers. Also, the “Spy” (uv light) pens are ever-popular as well as finger pointers, like primary classroom teachers use with reading charts, Word Walls and such. The only thing that changes about those things are the colors. For example, we are always given 4 different color variations of the uv light pens, usually black, white, and two others. The prices have remained pretty much the same until very recently.
    I now have former students coming back as teachers. One asked about the “smelly” erasers. I had totally forgotten about them. They really smelled good. Oh, the chocolate calculators have always been around though. Their scent really lasts for a very long time!
    And yeah, books. We do sell books.

Oh, and Jory John is popular with the K-3 set. He has a series of picture books that are good for learning about emotions and attitudes and such without being preachy. The OG is called “The Bad Seed.” For chapter books, historical fiction / adventure books are popular, like the “I Survived” series by Lauren Tarshis. But mostly graphic novels are super popular. For girls, anything by Raina Telgemeier is popular.

We werent that poor but my mom NEVER gave me any money for school, not for the book fair or to buy snacks, and when the book fair came around I would always see my friends buy stuff and I was just standing there. Mind you, it hurts even more because I was a nerd. From 1st grade to 6th grade, my lunch periods consisted of going to the library and reading (more like devouring) a book every day. So you can imagine, the book fair with cool new books that I couldn't buy.
      I swore to myself that if I had the disposable income and my kids liked reading, I would never do this to them. It was a HORRIBLE feeling.

    I stole one of those pens that retracted when you folded them in half in the fourth grade and some girl found out and tattled on me but the librarian was like "oh no I remember you paying for it, cause you did right?." That's the most guilt I've ever felt in my life and had she not been so gracious it probably would have been the start of a light criminal streak. That's why the first part of Les Miserables will always make me cry. Sometimes just giving somebody the silver will cost you nothing and will mean for them everything.

Like every Christmas people would donate books and then we could go around and buy beaten up books (they were never in good condition, it was like buying old public library books) for more money than a new one would cost! I don’t know if scholastic did book fairs here in Ireland, but if they did we didn’t get them.

    God did I love these book fairs in elementary school. I remember always being excited when they handed out the catalogs. I loved them looking at them over and over again. My dad must have been so annoyed when I kept asking for money. My favorite books that I got were the Magic Tree House Merlin Missions books, Spongebob short story book, and the Percy Jackson movie tie-in edition.

    At my school we had both the catalogs and the fair itself, so me and my friends would check off what we wanted and then look for them at the book fair and the things I remember the most about the fairs were the car posters, erasers, and bookshelf’s they had. The book section never had people in it, they all were around the Novelty eraser and pencil section. I remember looking forward to it every year, they had posters for it all around the school and in the stairways. I used to buy the novelty erasers like the money ones, the fake $50 movie theater gift card ones and the multi-piece ones that when the pieces got separated or broken looked strait out of a nightmare, I still have some of those erasers because I could never bring myself to use them, they now hang out in my pen and pencil drawer. I miss those book fairs, thanks for reminding me of those good times!!!

    Oh man, I remember going through the catalog the school sent home and only getting money if I picked a book with a Caldecott Medal or some other distinguishing award--assuming it wasn't TOO crazy expensive. I can see where my parents were coming from, especially since we were poor, but boy were those fairs like candy stores for kids!

    I remember in 2nd grade when the first Minecraft Hand book and the red stone handbook came out. I was the only kid in the whole school who had them. I felt like a king. People lined to read them. Then the combat handbook and the construction handbook came out, and I bought those too. I was a living legend. I was the coolest kid in school. I had all 4 Minecraft handbooks. Nothing could stop me. I still have them to this day.
