BookFest@Singapore 2010 & Concert of Hope
BookFest@Singapore is here again which means it's time to buy BOOKS!
With its theme "Reading Embraces the World", BookFest@Singapore 2010 seeks to expand horizons through a greater exchange of knowledge, culture and ideas. The mega book fair thus presents a multitude of reading and learning opportunities for everyone, with new releases, local and overseas author appearances, educational talks as well as guest appearances by celebrities.
Talking about author appearances. two of my favourite children's book writers will be at the fair to delight children (and adults).
Ken Spillman, author of the popular Jake's series, will be appearance on the 10th (Friday, 2.30pm) and 11th (Saturday) at the Scholastic booth. He will be launching his new third book "Jake's Balloon Blast". Jake has ALWAYS dreamt of flying, and he knows that he can- it's just a matter of HOW. What he need is: *A great plan *The right stuff *His friend Johan. Can jake get his BIG dream off the ground?
Adeline Foo, Singapore's well-loved author of "The Diary of Amos Lee", will also be having a book signing session on the 11th (Saturday, 6pm) and 13th (Sunday, 1pm) at Marketasia booth.
Have a good time at the fair. Where: Suntec Singapore International Convention & Exhibition Centre
I am off to attend Concert of Hope - to raise funds for Angkor Children's Hospital, tonight and tomorrow. Information and tickets are still available.
