Book Fair for Lower & Key Lower School

november 14–19, 2025

This year, the Parent Association’s Friends of the Library are hosting two book fairs, each tailored to different age groups! Our Lower and Key Lower School Book Fair takes place in November, and all the details are posted here. (Later, the Friends of the Library will share details about a spring book fair for middle and upper school students, so stay tuned!)

As always, a portion of every Book Fair sale directly supports our library programs, including student Newbery and Caldecott medals and prize books, school-wide storytellers, visiting authors, and more. 

Join us in celebrating a shared love of reading! It’s going to be TERRIFIC!
