Remind teachers about previews and class visits

Invite teachers to preview the Fair to create Teacher Wish Lists and prep for classroom visits. 

Keep sharing book trailers

Book trailers give kids a sneak peek of the books waiting for them at the Fair.

Host events and activities

Keep in mind

Check your eWallet roster for unspent balances
