Photos! The Word On The Street 2012

Queen's Park Circle was packed with authors, publishers and readers on Sunday, September 23rd for The Word On The Street, Canada's biggest book and magazine fair. The strange weather that day — one moment it was hot and sunny, the next, cold and rainy — didn't deter people from enjoying the many wonderful readings, activities and sales.

Open Book was there to take in the day's festivities and to snap a few photos. Click on a thumbnail to start the image gallery.

We hope people are happy to see pictures of themselves in Open Book’s image gallery, but if you’d like your photo removed please contact us at info@openbooktoronto.com and we’ll remove it as soon as possible.
