"As parents in NYC, there is nothing better than finding events that are fun, age-appropriate, and not outrageously expensive. That's why Children's Day at the Brooklyn Book Festival is such a great annual event: it's free, designed with kids in mind, and has plenty to keep toddlers, big kids, and even tweens engaged. This year, Children's Day is on Saturday, September 20, from 10 am to 4 pm at its new location: Brooklyn Borough Hall and Plaza."
"The Brooklyn Book Festival marks its 20th anniversary this year, bringing together hundreds of authors from Brooklyn and around the world. Featured guests include Alison Bechdel, Marlon James, Joyce Carol Oates, and Viet Thanh Nguyen. More than 250 publishers will participate in the Literary Marketplace, the largest book market in the Northeast. In the days leading up to the festival, a full schedule of readings, panels, and literary events will take place across the city and online."
