Children’s Book Week is the annual celebration of books for young people and the joy of reading. Established in 1919, Children’s Book Week is the longest-running national literacy initiative in the country.
The 99th anniversary of Children’s Book Week will take place April 30 – May 6, 2018. The 2018 theme is “One World, Many Stories,” which highlights the power of books to appeal to readers of all backgrounds.
We’ll be doing children’s displays and events all week long, each day focusing on a different part of the world. Join us and celebrate!
