Come one, come all to the annual CDS Book Fair, November 18-22, brought to you by the PA Friends of the Library. We are hopeful the Book Fair will be a source of joy and brightness, and we look forward to celebrating our shared love of reading! There will be books for all ages and reading levels, wish baskets to help our teachers stock their classroom libraries, and events throughout the week for the CDS community to enjoy. A portion of every Book Fair sale directly supports our library programs, including the student Caldecott and Newbery medals and prize books, schoolwide storytellers and visiting authors, and more. It’s going to be TERRIFIC!
The CDS Book Fair opens on Monday, November 18th! All of our students will have the opportunity to shop at the book fair with their class.They will also create their “Wish Lists” which will be kept on file. Keep an eye out for our special bookmarks with scheduled classroom times, open hours, and special events coming home with the book fair flyer! Parents are welcome to shop ANYTIME the Book Fair is open and will have access to the “Wish Lists.” Here is an overview of our TERRIFIC fair!
Please visit our Book Fair Site (link below) to see featured books, set up your student’s eWallet, and learn more about the CDS Book Fair. You can easily shop online during the fair and all online sales will count towards our overall Book Fair sales. Feel free to share the link with friends and family!

Join us for a fun evening to celebrate the opening of CDS Book Fair! We will have popcorn and treats with a special book signing visit from Robert Beatty, New York Times bestselling author of the Serafina and Willa of the Woods series (and CDS parent!). Mr. Beatty will be signing copies of his extremely relevant new book, Sylvia Doe and the 100-Year Flood. Willy will also be joining us to help families shop and find the best books!
We need volunteers to help our students and families shop. If you are interested in helping the Friends of the Library with this TERRIFIC event please take a moment and find a volunteer slot or two. If you have any questions about volunteering for Book Fair, please contact the PA Community Events Chair, Jessica Oelschlaeger.
If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out to the Friends of the Library co-Chairs, Charlotte Ditty and Liz Pettibone.
