Children's literature

For the second consecutive year, Zachary Karabashliev was honored as the "Author of the Most Read Book" in the 9th edition of the Annual Awards of the Capital City Library for "Writer of the Year & Reader of the Year".

More than 100,000 Romanians are expected to visit the main book fair in the capital, Bucharest, from November 18 to 22 November, which suggest that reading is alive and well in the country.

An association that promotes reading among children became on Tuesday the first African group to win the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award, the world's largest prize for children's and young people's literature.
