The ebullient guest director of #BolognaBooksPlus (BBP), @jacksthomas, was on characteristically upbeat form at #Sharjah#Publishing City when she addressed publishers to talk about next year’s second offering of the trade addition to the famous children’s book fair.

Our resilient book industry continues to evolve and adapt in difficult times. I applaud my book fair colleagues around the world for giving us the opportunity to meet in 2021 and I look forward to BolognaBookPlus in 2022.- @jacksthomas@BoChildrensBook
