I am looking for The Three Investigator by Alfred Hitchcock... anyone has any idea ? Did try out Bras Basah but couldn't get any. Even try to get ebook version but also no luck too :<

I remember coming across this series a long time ago. Most bookstores do not carry them anymore. Amazon might have this series.

Thanks. Hv tried it; they do not carry many ...

Nowadays, kids have very different taste for books - they do not like mystery stories like our days, they prefer fantasy type of stories dealing with demi-god, different worlds, teen spies, etc. I think it has to do with the computer games they are playing :idea:

This is my first bookfest, previously my sis will take leave to help me lug back stuff. I like it. Got Time for Kids, science guide books and some english books including TAS vocab book. I have not had time to go in again after being in there for about 45 mins. Went for short while, now kids asking me to bring them elsewhere. I may go again on Sunday. Sorry cannot update much but variety of books is great! Again I cant compare with previous bookfests but it looks good.

what are the good buy during the popular fair? is it 20% storewide?

Hi, you can find story books, stationery, assessment books all with big discounts. I think the assessment books are around 25% at the book fair vs 20% if you buy from the popular stores. However, the queue at the book fair usually very long. Be prepared to spend a fair bit of time there as there're a lot to check out.

Hi, does anyone know if we need to use the 20% discount voucher from popular book at the bookfest? so the assessment books are already discounted? need to get some assessment books and wonder if i should just buy at regular popular instead of going to the bookfest. thanks.

I went ytd. Not all assessment books have discount. I wanted to buy some Longmon Science assessment bks but no discount so will need to go Popular outlets to use the 20% discount vouncher.

Sorry I din ask abt the vouncher so dun know can use or not.
Very crowded, need to go early.

Cannot use the voucher. It can only be used in the popular bookstore.


Some assesment books go for 22% discount.

I saw 四五快读 (bk 1-8) the newer version. Chinese books are 30%.

This time the selection of books not too good as compared to the last year.
