General
The Company’s Children’s Book Publishing and Distribution segment includes the publication and distribution of children’s books in the United States through school-based book clubs and book fairs, school-based and direct-to-home continuity programs and the trade channel.

The Company is the world’s largest publisher and distributor of children’s books and is the largest operator of school-based book clubs and school-based book fairs in the United States. The Company is also a leading publisher of children’s books distributed through the trade channel and the leading distributor in the United States of children’s books through direct-to-home continuity programs primarily for children ages five and younger. In fiscal 2006, the Company distributed approximately 400 million children’s books in the United States.

Scholastic offers a broad range of children’s books. Many of the Company’s books have received awards for excellence in children’s literature, including the Caldecott and Newbery Awards.

The Company obtains titles for sale through its distribution channels from three principal sources. The first source for titles is the Company’s publication of books created under exclusive agreements with authors, illustrators, book packagers or other media companies. Scholastic generally controls the exclusive rights to sell these titles through all channels of distribution in the United States and, to a lesser extent, internationally. Scholastic’s second source of titles is licenses to publish books exclusively in specified channels of distribution, including reprints of books originally published by others for which the Company acquires rights to sell in the school market and original publications for exclusive sale in direct-to-home continuity programs. The third source of titles is the Company’s purchase of finished books from other publishers to be sold in the school market.

School-Based Book Clubs
Scholastic founded its first school-based book club in 1948. The Company’s core school-based book clubs consist of Honeybee ® , serving children ages 1½ to 4; Firefly ® , serving pre-kindergarten (“pre-K”) and kindergarten (“K”) students; SeeSaw ® , serving students grades K to 1; Lucky ® , serving students grades 2 to 3; Arrow ® , serving students grades 4 to 6; TAB ® , serving students grades 7 to 12; and Club Leo™ , which provides Spanish language offers to students pre-K to grade 8. In fiscal 2006, the Company announced that it would offer only these core clubs and would no longer offer two of its smaller clubs, Trumpet ® and Troll ® /Carnival ® . In addition to its regular offers, the Company creates special theme-based offers targeted to different grade levels during the year.

The Company mails promotional materials containing order forms to teachers in the vast majority of the pre-K to grade 8 classrooms in the United States. Teachers who wish to participate in a school-based book club distribute the order forms to their students, who may choose from 80 or more selections at substantial reductions from list prices. The teacher aggregates the students’ orders and forwards them to the Company by internet, phone, mail or fax. In fiscal 2006, orders through the internet accounted for approximately 45% of total book club orders. The orders are then shipped to the teacher for distribution to the students. Teachers who participate in the book clubs receive bonus points, which may be redeemed for the purchase of additional books and other resource materials for their classrooms or the school.

School-Based Book Fairs
Scholastic entered the school-based book fair business in 1981. Since that date, the Company has grown this business by expanding into new markets, including through selected acquisitions, and by increasing its business in its existing markets by (i) growing revenue on a per fair basis, and (ii) increasing the number of fairs held at its existing school customers. The Company is the leading operator of school-based book fairs in the United States.

Book fairs are generally week-long events conducted on school premises, operated by school librarians and/or parent-teacher organizations. Book fair events provide children with access to hundreds of titles and allow them to purchase books and other select products at the school. Although the Company provides the school with the books and book display cases, the school itself conducts the book fair as a fundraiser for a variety of purposes, such as to purchase books, supplies and equipment for the school. The Company believes that a primary motivation for schools sponsoring fairs is to make quality books available to their students at reasonable prices in order to stimulate interest in reading.

The Company operates school-based book fairs in all 50 states under the name Scholastic Book Fairs ® . Books and display cases are delivered to schools from the Company’s warehouses principally by a fleet of leased vehicles. Sales and customer service functions are performed from regional sales offices supported by field representatives. Over 90% of the schools that

sponsored a Scholastic book fair in fiscal 2005 sponsored a Scholastic book fair again in fiscal 2006.

Continuity Programs
The Company operates continuity programs whereby families generally place an order to receive multiple shipments of children’s books over a period of time. Continuity programs are promoted through (i) direct-to-home offers, primarily through direct mail, on-line advertisements, telemarketing, print promotions and the internet, and (ii) offers in the Company’s school-based book clubs. The Company’s direct-to-home continuity business is the leading direct-to-home seller of books for children age five and under. In fiscal 2006, the Company’s direct-to-home continuity business included Scholastic publishing properties, such as The New Book of Knowledge ® encyclopedia, My First Steps to Reading ® and Scholastic’s Phonics Reading Program , as well as licensed programs, such as Disney Book Club™ , Dr. Seuss™ Beginning Readers Program, Nick Jr.™ Book Club and Veggie Tales™ . Continuity programs offered through Scholastic’s school-based book clubs include Spy University™, Nick Zone™, How to Survive, Care Bears ® , Thomas and Friends™ and Clifford The Big Red Dog ® .

Trade
Scholastic is a leading publisher of children’s books sold through bookstores and mass merchandisers in the United States. The Company maintains approximately 6,000 titles for trade distribution. Scholastic’s original publications include Harry Potter ® , I Spy™, Clifford The Big Red Dog , Captain Underpants ® , Geronimo Stilton ® and Goosebumps ® and licensed properties such as Scooby-Doo ® , Star Wars ® , Lego™, Care Bears and Taggies ® . In addition, the Company’s Klutz ® imprint is a publisher and creator of “books plus” products for children, including titles such as How to Make Paper Airplanes .

The Company’s trade sales organization focuses on marketing and selling Scholastic’s publishing properties to bookstores, mass merchandisers, specialty sales outlets and other book retailers. Scholastic bestsellers during fiscal 2006 included books from the Harry Potter, I Spy, Taggies, How Do Dinosaurs™ and Charlie Bone™ series and individual titles, such as Inkspell, Over the Hedge and Read and Learn Bible .

In the United States, the Company mainly processes and fulfills school-based book club, trade, curriculum publishing, reference and non-fiction products and export orders from its primary warehouse and distribution facility in Jefferson City, Missouri. Magazine orders are processed at the Jefferson City facility and are shipped directly from printers. The Company’s distribution facility in Maumelle, Arkansas serves as the Company’s primary packaging and fulfillment center for its continuity programs. In connection with its trade business, the Company generally outsources certain services, including invoicing, billing, returns processing and collection services, and also ships product directly from printers to customers. School-based book fair orders are fulfilled through a network of warehouses across the country. The Company’s international school-based book club, school-based book fair, trade, continuity businesses and educational operations use similar distribution systems.

S E A S O N A L I T Y
The Company’s school-based book clubs, school-based book fairs and most of its magazines operate on a school-year basis. Therefore, the Company’s business is highly seasonal. As a result, the Company’s revenues in the first and third quarters of the fiscal year generally are lower than its revenues in the other two fiscal quarters. Typically, school-based book club and book fair revenues are greatest in the second quarter of the fiscal year, while revenues from the sale of instructional materials are the highest in the first quarter. The Company experiences a loss from operations in the first and third quarters of each fiscal year.

C O M P E T I T I O N
The markets for children’s educational and entertainment materials are highly competitive. Competition is based on the quality and range of materials made available, price, promotion, customer service and distribution channels. Competitors include numerous other book, textbook, library, reference material and supplementary text publishers, distributors and other resellers (including over the internet) of children’s books and other educational materials, national publishers of classroom and professional magazines with substantial circulation, numerous producers of television, video and film programming (many of which are substantially larger than the Company), television networks and cable networks, publishers of computer software and distributors of products and services on the internet. In the United States, competitors also include regional and local school-based book fair operators, other fundraising activities in schools, and bookstores. Competition may increase to the extent that other entities enter the market and to the extent that current competitors or new competitors develop and introduce new materials that compete directly with the products distributed by the Company or develop or expand competitive sales channels.
