BOOK Fairs
-
Anyone went to mph fair today?
-
I did… nothing exciting if you had been the one 2 weeks ago.
The usual chapter books… michael morpurgo, charlie small, magic tree house, A-Z…etc. The selection for picture books is extremely miserable.
And no Q at the cashier. -
Ah... Thanks ilovechubby! Any horrible series? Horrible science/geography/history etc? Just got my hand on one horrible book this week. Ooh, I like! Gotta start hunting them! :evil:

Just wondering if it is my imagination - is mph organizing more expo fairs this year? I don’t remember so many of them last year… But then again, I didn’t browse ksp last year…

Was there last night. Yes, selection seem to be the same as last time. Saw a lot more single titles of Charlie Small, a small box full of Mr Men/Little Miss books (nope, didn’t browse). Managed to come away with a few titles after some thought.
Very very few small children (ie with lotsa pictures) books, more of intermediate/advanced readers. Series as ilovechubby mentioned, also got dianne wynne jones books (Howl’s moving castle author).
Thing is, I had stuff from the $5 range of kiddy books and some $5 (mass paperback) - they count towards the group (ie 5 books of $5 will be discounted to $20). So can consider mix and matching.
No queue at the cashier’s. I still think the pricing is a bit confusing. Some stuff they consider trade paperback ie $7. Best to ask the staff before committing.
Am still wondering if I should have bought a michael morpugo’s book - the cover is different from others and it says ‘unedited copy for proofing, not for sale’. Am sucker for these sort of things. kekekeke -
