Authors attending Kitaabo will be signing their books for those interested, which can be bought along with other books from leading publishing houses at our book stalls.

The journey has been so rewarding every year as we see the happy faces of the children exploring, learning and expressing themselves.

Looking forward to another stimulating and exciting festival which will be even more memorable for the children, other attendees and all of us too.
