No, we do not. With a few exceptions, almost every title on a PBC fair is discounted from the retail price. We want every child to come to the fair and be able to walk away with a book, no matter what time of year it is.
It can't hurt to ask! We do not guarantee any titles at our fairs. What we do promise is to strive to bring you a great selection that will have something for you.
If you have special requests, like a summer required reading list, tell us EARLY! We may be able to provide you with pre-order forms for specific titles. Kids use the order forms and pay at the fair and after your fair is complete and we collect all prepaid order forms and ship the books to your school for distribution. This process can take 2-3 weeks for delivery of books.
