Attention all Children's Book Fairs !!!

PLEASE COME TO HAWAII!!! so, I can spend money on you guys and not on OVERpriced plane tickets. The same goes for Animation Festivals, Design Shows, and Arts and Craft Expos.

Below are images from the 2007 Bologna Children's Book Fair(photos were not taken by me!). There, people involved with every aspect of Children's literature from authors to producers and booksellers to librarians meet to discuss and debate the latest sector trends and generate new contacts from the very best of children's publishing and multimedia production.
