Sounds like a very interesting premise. I enjoy Scholastic Book Fairs. We are also having quite a number of book fairs around a few malls here in Singapore and I've been enjoying going around and finding nice treasures.GatheringBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477710897574769648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-63803729442003072872013-10-21T06:25:15.385-04:002013-10-21T06:25:15.385-04:00Already had The League on order and your review of...Already had The League on order and your review of Hitler's Secret convinced me to order it as well.
