In addition to books, the event also highlights deals on game bots, planners and PlanToys dino sets, plus activities that promote the inspiration and joy of reading, panel discussions and educational sessions.
Expect to join cooking demonstrations; Thai and English storytelling; reading, singing and playing; Dino Gang show; and a jigsaw contest.
The book sale was launched in Malaysia in 2009 with a mission to cultivate reading habits, increase English literacy worldwide and build a new generation of readers by making books more affordable and accessible to everyone.
Since its inception, the reading advocacy initiative has evolved tremendously, going global and touring 37 cities in 15 countries -- Malaysia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Myanmar, Pakistan, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, the United Arab Emirates and, most recently, Tanzania and Kenya.
