JAMMU, Oct 4: Scholastic India organized a Book Fair for students, teachers and parents at Jodhamal Public School, here.
It is pertinent to mention here that Scholastic School Book Fairs serve to promote the habit of reading in school-going children by offering children a wide selection of books and related material through the school system to give them an opportunity to read by choice and not by compulsion.
According to the organizers their programmes are geared towards partnering with educators and parents in deciding what is best for the children as it is the world’s largest publisher and distributor of children’s books with operations all over the world.
Internationally, the authors published by Scholastic include Suzanne Collins, JK Rowling, RL Stine, Philip Pullman and Cornelia Funke.
