The highly acclaimed and beloved Miami Book Fair returns from November 16-23 at the Miami-Dade College Campus and online. A literary wonderland of books, author talks, and activities, the event is a fan-favorite for all ages. The Street Fair, scheduled for Friday-Sunday, November 21-23, includes a wide variety of authors, books, and activities for children, teens and adults. At the Children’s Alley, kids are encouraged to use their imagination and express their creativity while participating in hands-on activities, and enjoy dance, music and storytelling performances. Characters like Wembly Wordsmith and Rita Readsmuch will add to the atmosphere. New to the Children’s Alley will be the FIFA Museum Soccer Station with soccer stories from around the world. Kids can hear fascinating facts and interesting stories during storytelling sessions, create their own trophy or mascot to take home during a crafting workshop, and test out their soccer skills at the inflatable goal station. Make sure to pick up a passport at the information booth when you arrive, so that the kids can set out on an adventure to collect stamps at different stops. Once complete, they can bring it back to the booth to redeem it for a free book. Street Fair hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 21; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22; and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 23. Admission is free on Friday and $12/person on Saturday and Sunday. Kids 12 and under receive free admission. The Children’s Alley is located at 300 NE Second Ave., Miami.
