Mongolia holds book fair for children

A fair providing comic stories and electronic books for children was held Thursday in Ulan Bator, Mongolia, as a gift of June 1 International Children's Day. A number of Mongolian publishers and book companies, organized by charity group "Book World", offered sales discounts and writer-signing at the site on the two-day event. Many children selected comic books and e-books with their parents at the fair. Suvd, an editor of "Book World" told Xinhua that kids to the fair were more interested in e-books and puzzle books than others. Educational books and world classics for parents are also available. "Book World" has held a number of events including book exchange, donations, and seminars between writers and readers, with an aim to promote reading and introduce Mongolian writers to the world.
