It took two hours to set up the library. Eight adults and a few kids helped to make the book fair perfect.

Everyone enjoyed the book fair, and it was a smashing success. Many books vanished in a flash as soon as it opened. Students raced as fast as they could to get certain titles such as “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel” and many others.
According to many kids, the book fair was awesome, wonderful, and amazing. Kids have been reading their books for the past week like crazy.
