The 44th edition of Sharjah International Book Fair (SIBF) started on Thursday, at the Expo Centre, Sharjah. I read through Gulf Today newspaper that Hollywood star Will Smith will be coming on Nov.14, to address book lovers. This is indeed an exciting news for me. I have been watching his films since my school days and now I would see him in person at the Expo Centre. Many more global authors and creative persons will be coming for the 44th edition of SIBF, which has a theme “Between You and A Book.” I remember I have been attending SIBF since my school days. I had the opportunity to attend the event from school with my classmates and teachers in 2007 and 2008 and now, I am in the college, pursuing my MBBS. It is thrilling to see book fair growing bigger and bigger. This is one few events, I make sure to attend it. I feel I am also growing with SIBF. This year many poets and writers from subcontinent are coming and this will bring more diversity.
