13:00 – Thomas Schlesser, Les Yeux de Mona (The Eyes of Mona)
A touching French novel that bridges art and life. Inspired by the mysterious gaze of the Mona Lisa, it takes readers on a journey through museums, paintings, and self-discovery — a moving reflection on passion, art, and the meaning of life.
14:30 – Roald Dahl, Danny the Champion of the World
A heartwarming story for children about courage, family, and adventure. Danny and his father’s unforgettable plan inspires young readers with humor, love, and the joy of imagination.
