This year, Instituto Cervantes has prepared once again a great literary event for the kids and we have the pleasure to be the official bookstore of the event 😁.
Please note, these activities take place in the Instituto Cervantes Bruselas (Av. Louise) and the registration needs to be done directly on their links. We will be present in these two activities:
🙈FRIDAY, JUNE 5. 5:00 PM “TICNIKS. WHEN PLUSH TOYS COME TO LIFE”
Storytelling/Workshop with Meritxell Martí and Xavier Salomó.
Ticniks look like simple plush toys, but with a magic formula, they can live for 24 hours. However, three essential rules must be followed, otherwise… “disaster strikes!”
In this storytelling session, the authors need a lot of help from the audience. We’ll meet the endearing Ticniks and, with Meritxell Martí, create a new character by inventing its rules and the consequences for breaking them. Meanwhile, Xavier Salomó will draw this new Ticnik live.
🙉SATURDAY, JUNE 6, 10:30 AM “A CURIOUS CAT AND AN INCREDIBLE GRANDMA”
Storytelling with Meritxell Martí and Xavier Salomó.
We’ll explore the world of Minino, a playful and curious cat who has adventures in the most everyday settings: on a rainy day, at Christmas, at bath time, because with him, we’ll discover that magic is in everything. Everywhere, in everyday moments. Even when putting on socks…
And we’ll also explore Grandma’s wonderful and horrifying house. This house is a rather special place, as it hides many surprises. You have to pay close attention to every detail, but be careful, you might get more than one fright! And above all, remember: look at the sky when it gets dark… because not everything is what it seems!
Author Meritxell Martin and illustrator Xavier Salomò have published dozens of children’s books and they have been also translated into English and French, among others. We will have plenty of their books so you can get them dedicated ✍️📚on the activities and there is also plenty in the bookstore for you to check it out.
