A Book Fair

    Books are called the store house of knowledge. It is book which always helps us. To make book more popular among students and other readers, book fairs are arranged time to time on different occasions.

    A book fair is a place where many kinds of books are displayed and sold. Visiting a book fair, we can have a rare chance of touching different types of books. Reading a nice book, sometimes we wish to meet the writer. A book fair gives us the chance of meeting great writers because writers gathered in a book fair to meet their fans and readers.

    Many small stalls are set up for publishers and book sellers. Some book fairs take entrance fee from the visitors and sometimes it is very of entrance fee. Sometimes it is free for students but others have to pay. Many publication companies take part in book fair with newly published books. They make a great display of different kinds of books. There are  fiction, novel, biography, story book, text book and so on. Usually prices of books are lower or people enjoy discount if they buy books from book fair. People buy books of their choice and interest.

    Not only books but also famous writers gather in a book fair. They give their autograph to their fans and readers. Along with the display and selling of books, every book fair organizes discussion and cultural programmes. Writers and famous personalities deliver educative and instructive speeches there. Almost all the speakers request readers not to buy pirated books.
    In the cultural programme, musical performance and sometimes plays are staged.

    Along with book stalls, there are some stalls where different types of foods are sold. Fair visitors go there for refreshment after being tired of walking a lot. Rich food items are available there but prices are higher than as usual. Fair arranging authority ensure wash room facility for visitors so that they can remain there for a long time without any hassle. Usually in Friday or any other holiday, more people come to pay a visit. Law enforcement also stay there for maintaining law and security.


    Book fairs introduce us with new books. It provides us with knowledge and merriment.
    I think there is no negative aspect of a book fair. So, it should be arranged time to time so that we can have new books of our choice. This will also encourage writers to write continuously.
