From Monday 27th November until Friday 1st December St Andrews International School Bangkok will host our quarterly new- and used Book Fair.
We welcome Paragon Asia for the very first time to our school! They will be here from Monday to Wednesday and sell the latest releases all age appropriate for our primary children. This is also a perfect opportunity to buy something for the holiday season. On Thursday and Friday we have invited Book Arena - a 2nd hand bookstore - to come and join us. So in other words, fantastic opportunities all around to buy some great books either for yourself, a friend or for your children!
We are still accepting donated books for our used-book sale. If you have any books, in a good condition, to donate, please drop them off at the Library and earn house points by doing so!
We received more than 100 new books last week!! Our “Books of the Week” gives you a very small preview.
With a simple, witty story and free-spirited illustrations, Peter H. Reynolds entices even the stubbornly uncreative among us to make a mark -- and follow where it takes us. Her teacher smiled. "Just make a mark and see where it takes you." Art class is over, but Vashti is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper. The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express herself. But Vashti can’t draw - she’s no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. "There!" she says.
That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.
