Scholastic India was set up in 1997 to help create a better reading and learning environment for children in India. Our mission is to bring the best books and other learning materials from Scholastic worldwide and from select local and international publishers to students in India. Scholastic India also runs a dynamic publishing programme that aims to bring out innovative titles from the best of Indian authors and illustrators.

We work with teachers, parents and students to encourage reading and promote the highest quality of educational material in English and Hindi. Today, we work with over 3000 schools and reach 3 million children all over the country and our network is growing each month.

We also work with trade distributors to sell books through retail stores throughout the Indian subcontinent.

Book Fairs

When the Scholastic Book Fair comes to your school, you can feel the atmosphere get charged up! There are special browsing sessions where you can spend as much time as you like looking at the books so that you can make up your mind on which books you really want. Not only does the book fair contain hundreds of books, including the best and latest titles at the most affordable prices, there are also reading-related activities—author talks and readings, literary quizzes, creative writing, games— conducted around the fair so that children can partake of the magic of books.

The book fair is divided into three segments according to reading levels. There are also special schemes to make books more affordable. You can even bring your parents along to be part of the whole experience.

The selection of books is also regularly updated to include the latest children’s books which are making news in India and abroad. There are also theme fairs where children can enjoy special selections on different categories of their interest.
