Bookproject in progress

In a unique collaboration 27 publishers will compose and produce a very special children's book in 27 editions in all the EU languages 

A book and a website for intercultural exchange between children

27 publishers from all the European countries, the IBBY section of the Netherlands and tuttibooks join hands in this unique project.

In the stories, talented writers give an insight into the daily life of a child or children in his or her home country, accompanied by illustrations of an artist from the same country.
