At the festival, the children were introduced to the book series “Happy Meal Readers,” which were edited and published exclusively by Cressida Cowell, the famous author of the book “How to train your dragon.”
Within the framework of the festival, the organizers also presented meaningful gifts to 300 participating needy children and orphans.
The Book Festival 2019 has turned the Book Street of Ho Chi Minh City into a meaningful playground and created an ideal reading place for not only local citizens but also visitors.
It also aims at promoting a reading culture and conveying the message of an equal access to knowledge for people from all walks of life.
