Kids Book Fair
Galeria Arsenał and „Fabryka Bestsellerów” Association
are delighted to invite You to KIDS BOOK FAIR
The book fair will include beautifully rendered books of more than 20 small and independent publishing houses that in the vast majority couldn’t be bought in a regular bookstore. In addition to this, they will be sold at very attractive prices, gathered in one place! The publishers will exhibit and sell books, which through the remarkable aesthetics tackle significant and difficult issues. Furthermore, they do not only concern adults but also children: sibling jealousy, bereavement, war drama, cultural diversity of neighbors, illness, or the history of Modern Europe. We will present books that inspire in an ingeniously simple way to talk about patriotism and ecology, (ill-famed) gender or human physiology. There will be also publications that may help parents to familiarize even the youngest children with the rich world of art, both contemporary and classical. The fair also include new and well-known fairy tales and stories in new editions. This year we will introduce two new outstanding series of comic publications aimed at children and published by Kultura Gniewu i Centrala.
