The '''Scholastic Corporation''' is an American multinational publishing, education and media company founded in 1920. They are primarily known for publishing, selling, and distributing books (and educational materials) for schools, teachers, parents, and children. Two of their most notable methods of distribution include the Scholastic Book Fair and Scholastic Book Club. <br />
<br />
==In relation to American Girl==<br />
<br />
Scholastic was the first publisher of the [[Central Series]] for the [[Historical Characters]] until 1991, when Pleasant Company (and later American Girl) took over full publication. <br />
<br />
Publishers Weekly reported in 2016 that American Girl and Scholastic had formed a new partnership to publish both physical books and electronic books based on the [[BeForever]] and [[Girls of the Year]] lines, starting in January 2017.<ref>[http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-book-news/article/70837-scholastic-partners-with-american-girl.html Scholastic Partners with American Girl], originally accessed July 7, 2016; see [[Older News 2016#July_2016|2016 news]] on this Wiki.</ref> They also assisted with continued publication of the ''[[Care and Keeping of You]]'' series of books. <br />
<br />
Two new historical series were published: ''[[A Girl Named]]'' series, focusing on real-life women in history, and ''[[Real Stories From My Time]]'', which merged American girl characters with actual historic events. Two contemporary fiction series, ''[[Like Sisters]]'' about modern girls in a close friendship, and ''[[Forever Friends]]'', focusing on girls working together at an animal shelter. The books were not initially sold through American Girl, but could be purchased through many books sellers including Scholastic's online store. <br />
<br />
Scholastic took over publishing the main books for [[Girls of the Year]] and [[Contemporary Characters]] from 2017 to 2019. They also published extra [[WellieWishers]] books which were dominantly based on the [[List of WellieWishers Animated Episodes|animated series.]] The partnership initially included reissuing books for retired Girl of the Year series, and expanding the older series with more books; however, this never came to pass before the end of the collaboration by approximately early 2019. <br />
