The Daily Telegraph Bath Festival of Children's Literature is staged by a not-for-profit limited company called Bath Festival of Children's Literature.

Our aim is to stage the biggest and best celebration of children's books as possible. We want to offer something that will appeal to readers of all abilities, and hope to excite and encourage non-readers too.

The festival is organized by a passionate and committed group of individuals in Bath, Bristol and the wider South West area who all love children's books, and are in some way connected to the world of children's book publishing. There are editors, booksellers, librarians, teachers and authors all on the organizing committee.

Together with our partner sponsors and venues, we take pride in trying to offer young festival go-ers a rich, stimulating and entertaining programme of events.
