I think my main criticism of adulthood is there are no surprise Scholastic Book Fairs. Nothing brightens a day like a surprise book fair.

Went to my Kindergartener's open house and they started talking about when they were going to have the book fair. The nostalgia came flowing back. The Scholastic Book Fair was like my Super Bowl as a kid. Couldn't sleep the night before I'd be so hype. Love that they still do it.

While on my walk, I saw signs for the Scholastic Book Fair, which almost made me skip, merrily.
However, they said, "Get your eWallet ready."
No, no, no, no, NO. Part of the charm was pulling a crumpled $5 bill out of your pocket and turning it into 11 books and a pencil.— 🇺🇸Rock Me SAMadeus 🇮🇹 (@SamRC1987) September 9, 2024

Isn’t it wild that a simple accidental waft from the pages of a new book can teleport you right back to standing in front of a pack of “Yikes!” Pencils & a new Goosebumps release at your Elementary School’s scholastic book fair?
