Summer Fun at the Book Fair!
The Hong Kong Book Fair is back! The Federation is once again thrilled that it can be a part of this eagerly awaited Hong Kong event, bringing the joy of reading and encouraging writing to everyone, especially young people.
The Federation will be releasing new publications, hosting author sharing sessions and holding creative writing activities. Among the ten new titles, is the Federation's first e-book, "Mountain and Sea: Leave no Trace", which promotes the outdoors. Another activity to look forward to is the champion of The School Young Writers Nurturing Programme 2019-2021, introducing her first book "Deep in Memories", which consists of 32 touching stories about growing up.
In the author sharing sessions, invited authors will cover such topics as Future Skills and writing journeys. Also taking place will be the Finals of the Hong Kong Creative Writing Competition 2020-2021, followed by the Awards Presentation Ceremony, which is supported by The Standing Committee on Language Education and Research.
The booth will have a Creative Writing Zone where anyone can try their skills at being an author of short stories.
The Book Fair is more than a book shop. Come and have a great time! Visit us at Booth 1C-A38 from 14 July to 20 July 2021 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Discounts at 20% off for new books, up to 30% off for purchasing 3 books or more
