Today I am reporting on the annual book fair that took place last Saturday the 9th.
It happened to be the fourth edition of the festival "Croc'Livres" and was held at the Athena hall in La Ferté Bernard, France
Throughout the day, dozens of people toured the aisles to meet the 75 authors present and get to know a about their books. The animations were also very numerous. There was a dog sled demonstration proposed by Arnaud Leoty, musher to Maisoncelles initiative, as well as "the head down" principle which was composed of reading a digital book by pedaling a bike.
However, most notably this event was marked by the presence of Bernard Hinault Badger, five time winner of the Tour de France, who was offering his books to the public. An audience that seemed to be attracted by his presence and full of doubt at his legibility ( we all thought that he used drugs to achieve the level that he did).
Below are pictures of the event.
