Scholastic Book Fairs is ending their segregated book program. We made ourselves heard.
A letter from the Scholastic corporation that reads "Dear Authors and Illustrators, I want to update you regarding the Book Fairs Share Every Story/Celebrate Every Voice case. First, I want to apologize on behalf of Scholastic. Even if the decision was made with good intention, we understand now that it was a mistake to segregate diverse books in an elective case. We sincerely apologize to every author, illustrator, licensor, educator, librarian, parent, and reader who was hurt by our action. We recognize and acknowledge the pain caused, and that we have broken the trust of some of our publishing community, customers, friends, trusted partners, and sta", and we also recognize that we will now need to regain that trust. This case will be discontinued starting with our next season in January. For the remaining fairs in the fall, Book Fairs is working on a pivot plan as we speak. We will find an alternate way to get a greater range of books into the hands of children. We remain committed
