When I See Me Children’s Book Fair
Get ready for a fun, high-energy family experience at the When I See Me™ Children’s Book Fair—back for its third year at the Dayton Metro Library West Branch!
While supplies last, every child receives a FREE book of their choice—because every child deserves to see themselves in the stories they read—Chick-fil-A gift cards, writing journals, and multicultural crayons.
When I See Me™ isn’t your typical book fair. Families will enjoy:
- Meet-and-greets with diverse authors
- Interactive activities that spark creativity and confidence
- Engaging literacy and storytelling experiences with a mental health therapist
- Giveaways and family-friendly fun throughout the day
From the moment children walk in, they’ll be surrounded by books, characters, and experiences that reflect who they are and who they can become. It’s a celebration of stories, imagination, and possibility—all in one place.
Bring the whole family and be part of a powerful community experience where children don’t just read stories… they see themselves in them.
