Kids who own books in their homes tend to be more eager readers. The annual school book fairs at FAVE and all the K-3 schools promote a love of literature by encouraging students to shop for books by some of the best-known and well-loved authors of children’s literature. DEF’s Book Fair Bucks allow students at all income levels to indulge their love of reading and build their home libraries.
