A photo of the Macmillan Children's Books stand at Bologna Children's Book Fair 2025. People are gathered around tables in an open, well-lit space. Shelves covered in new children's books cover the wall, along with large posters advertising new series. Among the posters, is one for Tiny Hercules, a new series of graphic novels by Jon Lock and Nich Angell.
Nich and I are delighted to announce that Tiny Hercules has made his international debut at Bologna Children's Book Fair thanks to our wonderful publishers at @macmillankidsuk.bsky.social
Tiny Hercules, a new graphic novel series, hits shelves in 2026! Be there! #kidlit #booksky #bcbf #bcbf25

Our publishing partner, Les éditions Gründ, showed us all the amazing musical board books that they are developing at the #BCBF the other night. Keep an eye out for our collaboration, JEWISH SONGS FROM AROUND THE WORLD, this summer!
While we couldn’t transport you to #BCBF we can share an interview with Manuel Marsol who was featured there last year with pages from ASTRO published by @transitbooks.bsky.social www.letstalkpicturebooks.com/2025/03/lets...

Wild! I was completely taken by surprise when I saw that my book, "Selma" (which is scheduled to come out in August) was used as the background for the display shelf of the @nordsued.bsky.social and @northsouthbooks.bsky.social stand at the #BCBF. How cool is that?!

Well, it’s been a brilliant Bologna Book Fair this year. Feel so lucky to get to talk about children’s & YA books every year amidst all this beautiful architecture! ♥️ Another inspiring #BCBF 😍
Disgruntled by the sunny weather back home, The Bookseller’s diarist takes to roaming the Fiere in Bologna, where a storm is brewing in the North American corner. (His money’s on Canada.)
