Bologna Children's Book Fair

Every spring, publishers from around the world gather in Bologna, Italy for the Bologna Children's Book Fair.

This year, Insight Editions has much more to share in the children's category since we've expanded our Insight Kids imprint to include several new titles each season.

Many of our books originate with foreign authors and illustrators, such as our new series written by Catherine LeBlanc and illustrated by Roland Garrigue, from France.

How to Mash Monsters, How to Demolish Dinosaurs and How to Pulverize Pirates are available this spring with three other titles from this series coming in the fall.

Roland Garrigue will be in the Bay Area in early April taking part in a few storytime events where he'll be reading - and drawing - from these new picture books.

From Father to Son

Father's Day is coming up pretty quickly and we couldn't think of a more appropriate book to highlight than Real Love: The Drawings for Sean by John Lennon.






The colorful art found inside this collection were images created by John with and for his son, Sean, during the five short years they had together.



We're honored to be able to share this book with the world. Fathers and sons bond in many different ways, but art and images that last forever in a book like this is a true gift.


Happy Father's Day!
