Parents Help Out at the KES Book Fair
At the Kent Elementary School Book Fair there was something for everyone. There were picture books for new readers and chapter books for more advanced readers. There were books written in Spanish and even books written in braille.
“This is a great book,” said Mackenzie, a kindergartner who picked up an Usborne Touchy-Feely Book entitled “That’s Not My Pumpkin, It’s Teeth Are Too Bumpy.”
“I can feel the pumpkin,” she said. The book also included braille on every page.
A large group of parent volunteers helped at the fair, leading children to books they might like and helping them figure out the costs and how many books they could afford to buy.
