East Bay here and WOULD ATTEND!

crayonover.bsky.social•30 days ago

Mychal, if you make this happen, please do a tour of this and make sure to come to the east coast! Seeing your light in person would be so beneficial for many of us millenial library kids!

lisakatzenberger.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yes please!

Not to be totally out of reach or out of line, but the book fair is kinda my whole thing, if there’s anyway I can help please please let me know

johnaenders.bsky.social•30 days ago

💯 would attend! 😍

sarajanegage.bsky.social•30 days ago

Oh my goodness I LOVE THIS IDEA!! Was just talking about book fairs with a friend. This would be so cool.

writebystarlight.com•30 days ago

YES PLEASE! This sounds amazing.

bunnymooning.bsky.social•30 days ago

I’ve been trying to collab with a local library with the idea of a free community made bookmark project. People can create/design bookmarks and drop them off at their library for kids/adults to choose a free bookmark when they visit but, now I’m thinking that would be a good idea for THIS!

earthlyinsights.bsky.social•30 days ago

finger snaps 🫰🏾 🫰🏾🫰🏾🫰🏾

bunnymooning.bsky.social•30 days ago

lol I love this❤️❤️

ahronnee.bsky.social•30 days ago

"Book Joy". I love the sound of that!!

msschlax.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yes we can!!! There are actually some locations in Alameda on the old base that could work really well and be very affordable!!

kimogara.bsky.social•30 days ago

You're the Hero we need in these times. ❤️

cecechats.bsky.social•29 days ago

I’m in

mssuzannesmart.bsky.social•30 days ago

It sounds amazing! Minus the Lamborghini posters it sounds like the amazing FOLD Festival of Literary Diversity we have near where I live...I imagine you would love it! Their monthly reading challenges are amazing too.

tgweeded.bsky.social•30 days ago

How about a section for blind date with a book??

juliechristine1990.bsky.social•30 days ago

We have a version of this in my city! https://rosemusichall.com/event/como-grown-up-book-fair/

mapchick.bsky.social•29 days ago

I just sent this to my kids. One of them said, “damn if you had been drinking I could have had so many more books!” The other said “Everyone loves the book fair!!”

mapchick.bsky.social•29 days ago

This would be so fun! I’m in.

schitts-homeschool.bsky.social•30 days ago

I missed the part about bookmarks and was going to say we needed them 😂 I have about 10 books on the go, I need free (or very cool) bookmarks.

mose68.bsky.social•30 days ago

This is my dream and you're just the person to see it come true! Some of my most fond memories of going to school was the book fair. Wasn't able to get much, but it was cool to see all the new books.

jelijam.bsky.social•30 days ago

•bouncy castle!

sashalyn.bsky.social•30 days ago

Can we also get some pretty new notebooks and perfect pens for sale at our fair? Can we make it so we can attach a charity, maybe by disbursing “banned books” to kids- buy a book/give a book?

skwerlz1009.bsky.social•30 days ago

LOVE buy a book/give a book! Or a book drive in general.

mbgthomas.bsky.social•30 days ago

Bring it to Dayton, Ohio please! I’d love this!!

cindasmommy.bsky.social•30 days ago

I’m so ready to plan a Chicago version but only with your blessings and guest appearance!

thesigmonster.bsky.social•30 days ago

Funky pencils and weird erasers!

mapchick.bsky.social•29 days ago

And the pencil sharpeners that only work a couple of times. 😂

mapchick.bsky.social•29 days ago

I would buy them all! Don’t forget the scratch n sniff stickers.

the-rainbow-witch.bsky.social•30 days ago

Very true, you gotta have at least one box of funky pencils at a book sale. And some scented erasers.

hereliescorri.bsky.social•30 days ago

This is IMPORTANT

earthlyinsights.bsky.social•30 days ago

👈🏾 And nice pens for us pencil averted ☺️💯

fairyringwarrior.bsky.social•30 days ago

Animal posters! My room was covered in poster I got from book fairs and scholastic book orders.

attunedliving.bsky.social•30 days ago

“Lamborghini posters” 🤣🤣🤣

blk91.bsky.social•30 days ago

LETS DO THISSSS

dsastrousvirgo.bsky.social•30 days ago

Add themed grown up pencils, pens and stationary and you got a deal. I like food too 😌🤭

bibli-ophelia.bsky.social•30 days ago

And scratch and sniff erasers that smell like tequila and Molotov cocktails?

dsastrousvirgo.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yes! Rum and Coke, and Lime margarita, and Lemon Drop 🤭😂

exisflor.bsky.social•30 days ago

How can we support? I write creatively, read lots of books and don’t mind hard work, especially if it’s about literacy and community xx

bkrumsch.bsky.social•30 days ago

Love. In. Tell me when and where!

sar-bar.bsky.social•30 days ago

And let's bring back Book-It! program, but for adults 🤭

wjtnow.bsky.social•30 days ago

Count me in!

earthlyinsights.bsky.social•30 days ago

Yazuh 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

sincerelymaxx.bsky.social•30 days ago

I love it!! This would heal the times I had to sit in class with all the other students in elementary school who didn’t have money to buy anything as we watched those with money come back with books.

abbymcraft.cute.expert•30 days ago

Ooohh!!! That would be awesome!!

meg-an-mar.bsky.social•30 days ago

I would 100% travel to go to something like this.

taralovesreading.bsky.social•30 days ago

I bought a Lamborghini poster at a Scholastic book fair! It was yellow and hung in my room for years!

awesomeannemarie.bsky.social•30 days ago

I'm there! As a former coordinator for Scholastic Book Fairs when my daughter was in school (she's 24 now), I would have had one of the nights during the fair week to do this! 😊📚
