The annual Brooklyn Children's Book Fair brings together nearly 50 Brooklyn authors and illustrators to share their latest books. Throughout the day, children and their companions can attend readings and presentations, learn about the creative process, get books signed, and have fun drawing and coloring.

Plus, take a dip in the ocean by visiting Oliver Jeffers: Life at Sea, an interactive installation inspired by one of Jeffers’s beloved children’s books.
