President Obama and the National Book Festival,

Good news is about to take place in the world of literature.

President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will play host to approximately seventy authors and lyricists at the annual National Book Festival, which will be maintained on Sept. 26 at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

The previous first lady, Laura Bush, initiated the festival, in 2001, to advance enduring interest in literacy. The occasion, controlled and subsidised by the Library of Congress, will be free to the public.

I can only hope that good will come from the affair. Kudos to the event. Let there be more, worldwide.
