Childrensillustrators.com's eye-catching digital screen presentation took centre stage in TWO key publisher meeting spot locations - The Illustrators Bar AND the Illustrators Corner. In addition to the two screen presentations, Childrensillustrators.com also sponsored The London Book Fair's popular Illustrators' Networking Event.  Art Directors were on hand to provide portfolio reviews and offer invaluable advice to attending illustrators.  We would like to thank Art Directors Thomas Truong (Stripes Publishing), Strawberrie Donnelly (Little Tiger Press), Emily Bannister (Caterpillar Books) and Managing Director Amanda Wood (Templar Publishing) for giving up their time to participate in this successful event. We are delighted to have secured such high exposure for our members at this year's Fair and look forward to building on our relationship with The London Book Fair for 2013.
