Children's Books on Tour - Spring 2024
Thinking outside the box, telling good stories, sparking the imagination, broadening horizons, or explaining the diversity of the world. Books can do all these things and many, many more. Because good books help us to grow better.
With nearly 50 new German-language titles for all age groups from very young children to young adults, the Frankfurter Buchmesse’s Children’s Books on Tour Collection will be travelling the world again this year.
German children’s and young adult books are very much in demand among international licensees and a real export hit for German publishers, being the top selling foreign rights category.

There is always something going on in this lively class! Adam starts a new school after his parents move from Poland to Germany. Luckily, he quickly makes friends because all his classmates are from different places. Or as Mrs Meister, the class teacher, says, “With us, you can travel all over the world without even leaving the classroom!” Whether it’s a lively museum trip, a school event where a mouse turns up or a slumber party with ghost stories, Adam, Mariam, Yanis and their friends never get bored. And Mrs Meister has the best ideas. Like building a stegosaurus, which is not that easy because dinosaurs are huge. But one thing is crystal clear: whatever happens, this class always sticks together.
