The Usborne catalog features a wide variety of learning books for babies on up through high school. These are high quality, beautifully illustrated books that capture a child’s attention and are perfect for learning. The simple text and colorful pictures make Usborne Books appealing to all children—those just discovering books and those who are already “book worms!” Each Usborne book is designed to stimulate, entertain and inform. As a child grows, they can be introduced to a whole world of amazing Usborne titles for all ages and interests!

This year St. John’s UCC Vacation Bible School theme is Re-New. Along with donating new books through the Book Fair, they will also donate any gently used books dropped off at the church. All donated books will go to the Reading Tree.

Reading Tree supports children’s literacy by getting books into the hands of children. For more information call 888-402-BOOK or go to www.ReadingTree.org.

“Did you know that readiness levels for kids entering school can be directly tied to income levels?

Did you know that 61% of low income families have no children’s books in the home?

The books are out there. Thousands upon thousands end up in landfills each year. You can help us use these books to change the lives of kids in your community – and around the world.” –www.readingtree.org

Along with the Book Fair at the church, there is an online eFair. You can shop online and your purchases will help to earn FREE books from Usborne to donate to the Reading Tree. Go to the box titled “Active eShows and eFairs” in the upper right column and click on St. John’s UCC VBS. This will take you into the eFair store to begin shopping. When you check out, please select the option to hold all books to ship later with the complete order if you wish to pick your books up at the church or if donating the books you order to the church for the Reading Tree. Please contact me to let me know which books your are donating. There will be no shipping charges unless you select to ship your books to another address immediately.

Please contact me with any questions.
