About Scholastic
Scholastic runs book fairs in tens of thousands of schools each year, an operation that is both its distribution network and, for many children, their first experience of choosing a book to buy. Its clubs send order forms home through classrooms, and the company gives schools a share of the proceeds in books, which is why teachers promote it.
