Organisers of the Akada Children’s Book Festival (ACBF), have announced that this year’s edition will hold on April 27.
According to a statement by Clever Clogs Books, who are behind the children’s picture books, ‘Diary of a Toddler,’ ‘Kobold the Antelope,’ ‘Tobi Visits the Conservatory’ and the soon-to-be-released ‘Why You Do You Wash Your Hands?,’ the fiesta will be a celebration of children’s literacy and the joy of reading.
The oragnsiers said, “The objective of this book festival is to promote literacy among children and bring back reading and writing culture, which is scarily almost dead. The festival, which is set to be a fun literacy initiative, will be hosted on the British Council premises in Ikoyi, Lagos.”
Although attendance for the festival is free, registration is compulsory. The festival is open to children’s book authors, illustrators and story tellers to its first ever book festival.
