I saw a really cute new picture book from Croatia about them in Bologna at #bcbf24. (With an impossible-to-translate pun in the title echoing the author’s surname…)
Grazie per tutto, Bologna Children's Book Fair! #bcbf24
On my way home, exhausted but energized after reconnecting with my bookloving family & meeting new members of the family.
😍😍😍
Die Piazza Rossini mit ihrer roten Mohnblumenskulptur vor blauem Himmel, rechts daneben der Schriftzug »Je suis temporaire«.
Bologna by its walls. Graffitikunst, eine gebrochene Hand auf gelbem Mauergrund greift nach dem grünen Briefkasten, daneben ein Ladenrollo mit dem Wort Stories im rechten oberen Eck.
Ich vor dem Graffito eine Ladens: auf taubenblauem Hintergrund steht eine überdimensionale schwarz-weiße Kriegerin mit einem Speer in der Hand, daneben ihr ein kauernder, in weiß gehaltener Mann mit einer Zimmerpflanze auf dem Kopf. 🌱
Klaus vor dem magentafarbenen Ausgangsschild des Messegeländes mit der Aufschrift »See you next year; 31 March – 3 April 2025«. Wir freuen uns schon heute darauf. Arrivederci! 💝
In fair v̶̶e̶̶r̶̶o̶̶n̶̶a̶ Bologna where we lay our scene.

We’ve had a wonderful couple of days at the Bologna Book Fair 📚 ☀️
Pictured holding Open Wide! with the author Dr Letizia Diamante. Coming out this September 🦈
Beautifully illustrated by Ed J. Brown 😍

Bologna Children's Book Fair is not all cats & yummy gluten free food & late night publishing parties: I have 57 meetings over 4 days.
A friend took this snapshot of me and NorthSouth Books Managing Editor Andie Krawczyk reviewing projects & portfolios in the Agents Center.

Wow!
The stand decoration for Callis Editora features some of the many translations of my picture book WILL YOU READ A BOOK WITH ME? illustrated by Thiago Lopes.
😍😍😍😍

I managed to get all 3 of my Bologna roommates in one photo.

I love visiting the cafe Senza Nome, where all the waitstaff is hard of hearing. It is an oasis of calm in the madness of the Bologna book fair/city. They have slips at the entrance to teach you the Italian signs for what you want to order. The tea setting also shows the sign for "tea." 😍 #bcbf24
Next stop: Bologna Children's Book Fair! #bcbf24
¡Próxima parada: la Feria de Libros de Bolonia!
Only 1 more sleep until I fly to Bologna for the #bcbf24
It's always an exhilarating if grueling book fair: I have 57 meetings, plus dinners, cocktails, serendipitous encounters...
Excited to be offering some new projects in this year's right's catalogue, as well as some backlist favorites.
😍😍
Off to #bcbf24. 🇮🇹 Hier geht’s Ende nächster Woche wieder weiter. 🙋🏻♀️
It’s #kidlitartpostcard day! I’m Laura, and this is Serena from my picturebook manuscript, Serena Speaks Italian. Speaking of Italian, see you in Bologna! A presto! #bcbf24
Messepark, Fahnen der Leipziger Buchmesse.
Messehalle von vorn, Blick auf den Messesee. Vor dem Eingang der Schriftzug: alles außer flach.
Kurze Kaffeepause in Halle 3 zwischen den Verlagsterminen.
Blick Richtung Halle 5 mit etwas wolkenverhangenem Himmel am Messedonnerstag.
Ein kurzer lieber Gruß aus dem Nachmesse-Bohai und ein kleines Innehalten, bevor es für uns gleich mit der Kinderbuchmesse in Bologna weitergeht. 📚🩵❤️
