Remember the joy you experienced at Scholastic Book Fairs? Now’s your chance to peruse the books on sale by several of Charlotte’s independent bookstores.
City Editor Maria, here. This article was originally going to feature one event but, while researching, I found several book fairs to include. You’re welcome.
Go solo or bring a book buddy to find your next favorite read.
