BookCon 2026 | STORIES THAT COME TO LIFE IN REAL TIME. WHERE FANS MEET THE MINDS BEHIND THE PAGES. A PLAYGROUND FOR READERS, CREATORS, AND IDEAS. PANELS. SIGNINGS. EXPERIENCES THAT FEEL PERSONAL. WHERE POP CULTURE AND LITERATURE COLLIDE. DISCOVERY, CONNECTION, AND NONSTOP ENERGY. A WEEKEND WHERE STORIES STEP OFF THE PAGE. THE SPACE WHERE READERS BECOME PART OF THE STORY.
BookCon emerged as a response to something readers had been wanting for years: a space where they could engage directly with the stories and the people behind them. Evolving from the industry-focused BookExpo, BookCon opened the doors to a wider audience, transforming into a reader-driven event that celebrates not just books, but the experience of storytelling itself. Over time, it has grown into a major gathering where fans, authors, and creators come together in one shared space.
Unlike traditional book fairs, BookCon thrives on interaction. It’s a place where readers don’t just browse, they participate. Panels, live interviews, book signings, and fan-driven discussions fill the event with energy. It creates an environment where stories are not only read but talked about, questioned, and experienced in real time.
The 2026 edition continues to highlight the evolving relationship between readers and storytelling. It reflects a world where audiences are more engaged than ever, shaping conversations, trends, and the way stories are shared. BookCon stands as a space where creativity meets community, and where every voice has the chance to be heard.
Exhibitors from across the publishing world take part, including major publishers, independent authors, media platforms, and creative brands. The event floor becomes a hub of discovery, where new ideas are introduced, connections are built, and stories find their audience.
Amid this high-energy and interactive setting, Kravitz and Sons is proud to join BookCon 2026. We’re excited to exhibit Have You Ever Imagined: Dogosaurs by Robert L. Anderson, a fun and imaginative children’s book that invites young readers to combine two of their favorite things, dogs and dinosaurs. Through playful ideas and creative thinking, the book encourages kids to imagine entirely new creatures.
This book brings a sense of curiosity and creativity that feels natural for young readers. It does not just tell a story, it invites participation. In a space filled with energy and interaction, it stands ready to spark imagination and let kids explore their own ideas in a fun and engaging way.
A Story Inspired by Children
Robert L. Anderson’s inspiration comes from years of working closely with children as a school bus driver. Those daily interactions gave him a front-row seat to how kids think, imagine, and express themselves.
His writing reflects that experience. It is simple, playful, and full of curiosity. Instead of guiding children too strictly, he gives them space to imagine on their own, making his storytelling feel interactive rather than structured.
A World Where Dogs Meet Dinosaurs
The book introduces the idea of “dogosaurs,” creatures that combine different dog breeds with dinosaurs. From Retrieverosaurs to Chihuahuaosaurs, each concept invites readers to think creatively and even come up with their own names.
The setting is not fixed in one place, but instead exists in the imagination of the reader. Each page becomes an opportunity to explore, draw, and create new ideas. The book turns reading into an activity rather than just a passive experience.
The lesson is simple but powerful. Imagination has no limits. By encouraging kids to think freely and create their own versions of these creatures, the book builds confidence, creativity, and curiosity.
A Fun Adventure for Young Minds
Some books teach, while others let kids explore. Have You Ever Imagined: Dogosaurs does both in a way that feels fun and natural.
