AUTHOR VISITS
Students on the Primary and Middle School campus have the chance to hear visiting authors speak about their work and have their books signed. Visit the campus pages below for a detailed schedule and overview of visiting authors.
STUDENT BOOK FAIR SHOPPING
Primary School students shop the Book Fair with their classrooms, while Middle and Upper School students may shop on their own time or with a class.
- Make sure to pre-order books for your student(s) in order to guarantee they are signed by the author. Please see below to place your order.
- Primary School Parents - Don’t forget to set a spending limit for your student(s)
PRE-ORDER VISITING AUTHOR BOOKS
Don’t miss the opportunity to secure signed copies of exclusive titles from our visiting authors. Use this order form to purchase books—whether for a student or as a special gift! All orders must be submitted by November 8.
Important notes:
- For Primary School students: Pre-ordering is the ONLY way to receive an author-signed book. Students will not be allowed to get books signed on the day of the author visit without a completed form.
- For Middle School students: Students may purchase books during the fair and have them signed by the authors. However, to guarantee a signed book, you will need to submit a pre-order form.
- If you have children on multiple campuses, you may either:
- Submit a separate form for each child, OR
- Submit one combined order and indicate which homeroom/advisor you'd like the books delivered to.
- For all book dedications, please limit to a first name or nickname. NO personal messages allowed. You can also indicate whether you prefer only the author’s signature. Personalized books are not refundable. All sales are final.
- Faculty and staff may pre-order by entering your name in all applicable fields. Please be sure to indicate where you would like our order delivered.
- Lastly, please remind your child of the books that were pre-ordered to prevent duplicate purchases.
If you need to inquire about pre-ordering or with other questions, please contact EJ Park.

Due to the construction project at the Upper School, we will not be holding a dedicated fair at that campus this year. We encourage our Upper School students, faculty, and staff to enjoy the fair at our Primary and Middle School locations.
Upper School parents and guardians are also welcome to volunteer at both the Primary and Middle Schools!
