Sussex County Children’s Book Festival

Image of a light blue sky and a green hill with graphics of books with smiling faces surround colorful text that says, 'Sussex Children's Book Festival'. The books all have text boxes that each exclaim, 'Books!'. In the center of the hill underneath the large title text there is smaller text that says, 'Saturday, May 2, 2026 10:00 Am to 2:00 PM Milton Public Library'. On the very left and right side in the sky are graphics and text promoting the different activities and they say 'Meet and Greet Authors, Vendors, Food Trucks, Petting Zoo, Face Painting, and Train Rides'. Lining the bottom of the image is our sponsors, 'The Town of Milton, Enchanted Magical Moments, Browseabout Boooks, The Little Farm, Milton Community Foundation, Home2Suites, Clean Delaware, Milton Home Roastery, Zava Cafe. Abbott's Grill, Irish Eyes, Surf Bagel'.

Mark your calendars and get ready for a magical day of imagination, creativity, and family fun!
