Holiday Book Fair 2018
It's December, and that means Lincoln is having a book fair. Come to our Follett Book Fair and find just the right books to encourage reading. Giving kids access to good books, and the opportunity to choose their own books, motivates them to read more. Reading is vital to success in school. Good readers find it easier to excel in all subject areas.
We hope to see you at this year’s holiday book fair!
