A massive gathering of 350 Digital Ehon books from 45 countries around the world!
The International Digital Ehon Fair 2015 ~Digital Children’s Book Fair 2015~,
will host the announcement of the 4th Digital Ehon Award results and the awards ceremony as part of the Workshop Collection!
By leveraging the unique qualities of picture books that appeal to all of a child’s senses,
we aim to deliver a richer world to children through interactive features unique to digital media, while also
continuing to contribute to the creation and development of “Digital Ehon” as a new form of cultural expression.
