Book Fair

Believing I can travel to any location
Open a book and find a new friend
Only want to spend millions of dollars
Keep an open for a fabulous treasure

Feeling excited 
As the smell of books fills the air
It is almost time to check out our 
Radical PTA Book Fair!

I love books!  I have been a book collector all of my life!  One of my most favorite things to do in my free time to go to Barnes and Noble, find a cozy corner, and get lost in pages of wonderful words!  (of course my cup of coffee is close to me, too)  So, when PTA brings the book fair to our campus, I get super excited and can't wait to share those moments with each of you!  

Let's buy a book!
