“Children’s Book Island” Literary Festival

This year, the “Children’s Book Island” literary festival is celebrating its 10th birthday! We invite young readers and those who are a little older to join us for a fun-filled celebration!

This year’s theme is “Popular Literature”. What exactly makes literature popular: classics that remain at the top of the charts for decades or striking contemporary bestsellers? What matters more to an author – being a talented creator or a charismatic personality? Can being different lead to popularity? Does going against the grain always mean quality? How can reading be “sold”? What matters more – a book that has changed one person’s life or a story that has made hundreds of readers laugh? This year, we invite you to explore the theme of popularity from a broad and open-minded perspective!

At this year’s “Children’s Book Island”, you will undoubtedly meet some of today’s most popular authors of children’s and young adult literature. You will experience books and their stories through theatrical presentations, musical performances and literary installations. There will be activities for everyone, from babies aged 1–3 to young teenagers aged 11–12.

See you at “Children’s Book Island” – let’s blow out the birthday candles together!
