This year’s theme is Titaantjes – Opgroeien in de letteren, which roughly translates as Little Titans – Growing Up In Literature. See the website for the countless events planned everywhere (including when you can travel for free with your Boekenweekgeschenk)(i.e. Book Week Gift)(which, incidentally, we won’t be able to give away to you in our stores, as they are designated for buyers of Dutch books)(we applied for them, but were given this answer, alas).
