This event took place at theĀ Goethe-Institut Johannesburg on Saturday, 25 February 2017. It was sponsored by the wonderful people at Worldreader.
The Goethe Institut generously made it possible for six writers and six illustrators from different African countries to participate in this special event.
Supported by Book Dash facilitators, editors, and lots of food and coffee, these incredible volunteers manage to complete a process that would usually take months. The best part? Everything created on the day is their gift to the world, and all the books produced can be read right here at bookdash.org. All the stories can also be downloaded, adapted, printed and shared in any way. Just remember to credit the creators, and link back to this site.
