Four Ways to Purchase Books Attend the fair with your child’s class on Wednesday and make your purchases that day
Send your child on Wednesday with cash or blank check payable to Aesop’s Fable (with max amount in memo section) to make his or her own selections
Have your child complete a wish list when they visit the fair, and then you can make purchases when you visit the fair later that day or the following day
Purchase online at https://aesopsfable.com and indicate Pine Hill Book Fair at checkout. (Note: these books will be delivered later to the school)
Teacher’s Wish Lists You can also contribute to your child’s classroom by purchasing books from teachers’ wish lists to enrich classroom libraries. Teachers’ wish lists will be displayed in the auditorium for easy reference, or you can find them on the Aesop’s Fable website. It’s also a great time to stock up for Easter, birthdays, and teacher gifts.

Sherborn Picks Up - April 2023The Town of Sherborn’s Select Board and its Department of Public (DPW) works is supporting this community volunteer effort to pick up litter in Sherborn in April. Help us fill the WHY!!A public art installation of letters spelling out “WHY”- made of rebar and chicken wire and standing 5’ tall - will again be installed by the DPW at the Sherborn 16/27 split. For the April Cleanup, volunteers are encouraged to sign up to pick up litter during times and in areas of their choosing. Litter has accumulated throughout Sherborn on roadsides, adjacent to sidewalks and at the edges of recreational areas such as Fessenden, Laurel Field and the Playground. The sign up just lets us know your interest and plans, you will not be formally committed to anything - and we will be able to reach you with details, photos and local updates throughout the month.
