Can you believe it's December already?! 

It has been a busy past two months. In October we attended the Frankfurt Book Fair and met with many publishers and agents. In November we participated for the first time ever at the Sharjah International Book Fair. There we attended the professional programme and exhibited at the Librarians Conference. Finally, we are back in our offices and  we want to thank yo u for a wonderful 2017, and at the same time let you know  about new titles and how well some of our business, training, and self-help titles have sold in this quarter. Be sure to download our catalog from Frankfurt and if there are any books you wish to review for translation, contact us.
