Fairfax, VA; May 31st, 2014

Books for America, a D.C Area non-profit will be hosting a Book Fair event at the Barnes and Noble in Fair Lakes Promenade on May 31st! The event will be from 1PM to 5PM and will feature nationally-recognized children’s book author Jason Cater Eaton reading from his book How to Train a Train (1PM-5PM), poet and teacher Derrick Weston Brown reading from his collection Wisdom Teeth (2PM), and 2014’s Miss Black DC US Ambassador Mia Simms in full regalia making bookmarks with the kids (1PM-5PM)!

15% of all purchases made by Books for America’s supporters at the Fairfax Barnes and Noble (ALL DAY, not just 1PM-5PM) will be donated to Books for America, so bring the entire family out for a day of fun with reading and help support Books for America’s literacy and education programs! Anything from the newest mystery thriller to a cup of coffee in the café to a greeting card will benefit us.

Every year, Books for America is able to reach more children in need through schools, educational programs, and non-profits, but not without your help! Karen Roth, a Reading Specialist from Antietam Elementary Schools, wrote that “[Books for America] is preforming a wonderful service for the community. Thank you so much for allowing Antietam Elementary School to be part of this worthy project.”
