Here's what people are saying about our Bargain Book Fairs!
"Hey Ladies!
I received my Reading Warehouse Book Fair yesterday....It is awesome. My students and teachers are soooooo excited. I have used all my tables and the tops of my low book shelves to display the books. There is a great selection and they sent any where from one to six copies of each title. There are lots of past Caldecott winners and honor books as well as books from the state children's book awards nominee lists. WooHoo....no posters or overly priced toys either!
I am very pleased!"

"I am cancelling my Scholastic BOGO fair in the spring and signing up with them. I was impressed with their selection of books and this is such a great opportunity to offer
my students books at a super price. My school population is much like Joyce's and this will be such a wonderful thing for them. NO TOYS! Just READING!"

"The selection looks really good and I think this will be a great book fair
for my school since we are about 98% free and reduced lunch and my students
don't have much spending money. All of their books are either $2.00
(paperback) or $4.00 (hardbacks). So you can mark them up a dollar and still
make a profit, but the kids can still afford them. Or if you only cared
about getting books in their hands, just charge them the $2.00 and $4.00. I
am definitely canceling my Scholastic book fair for the Spring and doing one
with them."

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I order?
Simple. To place your order, just call us toll free at 866-391-READ (7323) or email us at
.
Your order will ship within 72 hours and generally arrives at your school within 7-10 days.
How do I pay for the fair?
At the end of the fair you pay us for the books sold and return the rest to us. This way you can put on your book fair, collect the money, and then pay for the fair – no out of pocket costs incurred!
What kind of books will be in our fair?
The Reading Warehouse buys book closeouts and remainders from all the major publishers. Most of the time these books are not found on the bestseller list – however, they are books that are popular – such as Curious George or other award winning books. We select books that we know to be popular with students and have educational value. You will get both hardcover and paperback books at up to 90% off retail. You will be able to sell them to your students at discounts of 30%-60% and still make a large profit. You will not be disappointed!
How is the fair delivered?
Your fair will be delivered in multiple boxes via UPS or a freight carrier.
What if I need help in putting the fair together?
No problem! We have a team ready to guide you through the process just a toll free phone call or email away.
What if I have left over books – can I return them?
Yes. We include a return label with each order so that you can send the unsold books back to us.
In order to keep our
costs low and provide these books inexpensively it is important that you try to minimize the return of books ordered.
Shipping costs are one of the main factors in book pricing. By keeping our return volume low we keep shipping costs
contained and are able to give you quality books at bargain prices. We ask that you consider carefully what you
think you will sell at your fair and order accordingly. Our suggested book fair size based on student enrollment
is a pretty good guideline for how many books you will need. In most cases, because of the low cost of the books to
students, most schools sell everything they have – leaving very few leftovers. As an extra incentive
you will receive 10% off the book costs if you have no returns! The team at The Reading Warehouse will work
with you to help you determine what is the appropriate size fair you will need. Any returns will be credited to you
at $2.00 for each paperback and $4.00 for each hardcover.
