Scholastic Books for the Holidays
I remember growing up with Scholastic books. Do you remember the newspaper flyers you would go home with and choose the books you most wanted? Or the book fairs at school? I was actually just at one of the book fairs for my son who is in Kindergarten. It may have been more fun for me than him – not sure? LOL Scholastic has come out with some really cute book for the holidays! Thanks to Scholastic, I received 2 wonderful Christmas books, that my family and I can enjoy reading this holiday season. The books I received are called The Christmas Magic and The Nutcracker and The Mouse King. The artwork is beautiful in both works and the stories are beautiful.

I LOVE Scholastic… I remember bringing home book orders throughout Elementary school. In 2nd grade, we ordered so many books each time my teacher was earning loads of free books for the classroom. He would always put in little extra stickers with our order to say thank you! My friend just recently brought over her daughters book orders and my heart melted seeing those same thin paper ads filled with fun books just waiting to be read!
I used to always love the bookfairs at our school. I always got to order a new Clifford book.

We love Scholastic books in general. We always look forward to ordering days at our son’s school. I think No More Monkeys Jumping On The Bed was the first book he ever bought!

As a beginning teacher, I used to love it when we would have a Scholastic Book Fair in our Library each year. The only problem is that it would cost me some money as they always had various learning items and not just books that were wonderful.

My Memory of Scholastic Books is coming home from school with a new order form, and going through them circling the ones I wanted. I loved ordering and still have some of my books from when I was growing up.

I think most of us have memories of reading Scholastic books. A lot of them were used for extra credit points in my school, where we could read them on our own time, take a computer quiz on it, and redeem points for various things.

I have raised 4 children who are grown and on their own. I had so many fun taking them to the Scholastic books fairs while they were in school. Also when they brought home their scholastic book order forms from school. We would all sit down together and go thru all the order forms and circle the books they were getting. So much excitement when they brought their scholastic book orders home and we then sat down again reading. I have a 7 yr old now, and we are able to enjoy scholastic once more. Great company!

I remember the excitement of taking the Scholastic bookorder home each month and carefully selecting books to order, Now I get to share the same experience with my children.
I remember getting the book order forms. It was so exciting when the orders came in!
I loved when we had a Scholastic book sale at school because my parents would always let me order 2 new books.
My special memory of Scholastic books is reading them when I was growing up and now I am ordering them and reading them to my kids.
I remeber when they handed out the flyers in class and the orders went out and came in, sometimes that was just like getting mail
I remember the cool flyers
I don’t have one specific moment I just know that whenever I ordered from Scholastic when I was younger..I would love to be taking my new book home …I would close my bedroom door and read and read until i was called for supper or bedtime

I have lots of old scholastic books from book fairs in elementary school!
I follow your blog!
Blog follower via google and even though my kids are grown still collecting scholastic books for my students.
I would bring home the flyers and always wanted some book or another. I ended up with a magazine subscription and on one of them I remember it had JJ Walker on it with the word DYN-O-MITE which apparently I thought was cool because I still remember it to this day.

I just got out one of my old Scholastic books that I got in 1st grade back in 1975. I got it for winning a reading contest and it’s signed by my teacher. I remember how excited I was to get the book. My daughter just read it to me today. It was pretty neat.
I was a super bookworm as a child…..I would always earn my books by doing odd jobs for aunts and uncles and my parents. Then I would look over the Scholastic book order from school for hours before deciding which books I wanted the most.
i remember always wanting to get a book..not for the book itself but they always had cool cat/dog posters if you bought something

I remember getting book sales when I was younger and being excited to have my own books. Now I go to the warehouse sales and find awesome books for my little boys that are so cheap!
