Nice and stubborn in the library!
From October 2 to 13, it's time for Children's Book Week again! This year's theme is Lekker Eigenwijs (in the Library). Do you dare to be yourself, make your own choices and follow your own path? In the Library you will find books that inspire you to be nice and stubborn. And to stay that way! With us you will discover the nicest, funniest and most exciting stories that challenge you to think and act for yourself. Read more about the program below, so that you know exactly where you will be going for free during Children's Book Week 2024!
Visit the Eigenwijs Klooiatelier, where you can make whatever you want with all kinds of crazy materials. Or meet Gabriel Martina, better known as Wildebras, and learn all about his love for animals. In addition, at Eigenwijs Alfabet, with the help of artificial intelligence, you can design your own alphabet. During the Children's Book Week you won't be bored for a second!
