Dear Karen,
LAST CHANCE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EARLY-BIRD
SAVINGS TODAY! BOOK YOUR TICKETS NOW...
The programme is now live and almost
complete although we have a number of exciting announcements to come.
This year's theme is The Big Tent: Publishing for Everyone in Today's Divided
World. We will be
exploring how to ensure that all children have access to books and
develop a love of reading in a world divided.
Speakers include Liz Cross and Johan Palmberg, who are orchestrating a global campaign for
Pippi Longstocking, and will discuss using innovative marketing and PR
campaigns to make books stand out from the crowd. Kirsten Cozens from Walker Books who managed to get Jessica Love's gorgeous picture
book Julian is a Mermaid
in front of RuPaul, will also speak on the value of good PR campaigns.
Also announced are our fantastic keynotes,
starting and finishing the day – Catherine Bell from Scholastic UK, and our new children’s laureate Cressida Cowell– and for the first time, Kirsten Grant from World Book Day will exclusively announce the 2020 World Book Day £1
titles!
We have so many more exciting speakers
lined up for the conference, see here
for more of our programme.
Everyone
loves a saving, so get booking now!
See you on
23rd September!
