ITH THE CHILDREN’S sector continuing its rise in the UK (see p04) and the schedul- ing problems that made 2016 more than a bit stressful for fairgoers in abeyance (for this year, at least), 2017 is poised to be a banner year for the Bolo- gna Children’s Book Fair. Technology seems to be a huge part of this Bolo-
