Young book lovers enjoyed an exciting range of international author talks at the Institut Francais last weekend. Lovereading4kids was the proud supporter of two such events. One was a lively discussion between bestselling authors Anne Fine and Agnès Desarthe as they shared their experience of writing stories for children in both Britain and France. The second was a rare opportunity to meet scriptwriter Fabien Vehlmann (behind the latest Spirou and Fantasio adventures) and Belgian illustrator Bruno Gazzotti who talked about their collaboration on the comic series Alone and the adventures of Dodji and his squad. All the attendees got a special Lovereading goody bag which as you can see from the photos below they thoroughly enjoyed.
