London Book Fair 2020 was cancelled because of the Coronavirus pandemic, and as of May 2020 many publishers and creatives are in furlough or working from home. However the work goes on, and let's hope that children's non-ficion will be back with a bang in 2021. In the meantime, keep in touch – and keep safe!
