The National Book Festival
The purpose of the National Book Festival is to encourage Americans to
develop a lifelong love of reading. The Festival, which is free and open
to the public, is made possible by generous sponsors.
The Festival includes readings and book signings by award winning authors
and illustrators of books for both adults and children. Additional
activities include musical performances, storytelling, and exhibitions
from reading promotion organizations and the Library of Congress.
