Prices are correct at time of printing. Prices subject to change without notice.Scholastic is committed to bringing children and books together and may opt to release titles early to schools. Should this occur with any of the titles listed in this edition of Parade, our Trade customers will be able to access these titles as early as our school customers.


Scholastic's mission is built on helping children learn to read and love to read. We believe that independent reading is a critical part of children’s learning and growth. With support from teachers, parents, and schools, children choose from Scholastic the books they want to read, and discover the pleasure and power of reading. Finding the right book at the right time can light an emotional spark within children that motivates them to read more, understand more,

and read joyfully. When that happens, the world opens. Everything becomes

possible.
