After two difficult years, this spring 2022 finally welcomes the 33rd Youth Book Fair in Isle. An unmissable event that will take place from March 24 to 27 with a program full of discoveries, curiosities and great adventures!
More than 30 years of existence
The Salon du Livre Jeunesse d’Isle has existed since 1987 and has always had the successful ambition of bringing the pleasure of reading to the youngest. This fair has all its importance when we know that children’s literature, long forgotten, now occupies second place on the publishing market, just after general literature.
In Isle for three decades, this literature in its own right offers visitors free moments of exchange with authors and illustrators, workshops to dream, imagine and project themselves into the future.
The book is often the first cultural object that is put in the hands of the child
Today, traditional tales are revisited, modernized, listening to our society. They are topical and illustrated to support the point.
albums have become objects that are both playful and creative
