Dimensions of a Book

What does a publisher do? What influences the appearance of a book? What should children’s books look like? Are letters always the same? Books are not only stories contained between covers, but also tangible objects whose appearance always reflects more than the mere text written inside them. The Conrad Festival and the Karakter publishing house invite you to four lectures devoted to the various dimensions of a book. You will never skip the editorial page again. We invite you to join us!
Daniel Mizieliński - an internationally popular co-author of children’s books, will reveal the secrets of working on books for the youngest – and the most demanding – readers.
