As the pages of history turn, we find ourselves reflecting on a remarkable milestone—the 30th Los Angeles Times Festival of Books, the largest book festival in the United States, held on April 26-27, 2025. Set against the stunning backdrop of the University of Southern California campus, this annual celebration of literature brought together thousands of book lovers, authors, and industry professionals for a weekend brimming with literary magic.
Attracting around 150,000 attendees from Southern California and beyond, the festival was a testament to the enduring appeal of literature and the community it fosters. Each event, each conversation, and each shared moment contributed to a rich tapestry of experiences that celebrated the diverse voices and stories that shape our world.
This year, Citi of Books was thrilled to be part of this vibrant gathering, where the love for literature was palpable in the air. Whether you were a lifelong bibliophile or a curious newcomer exploring the world of books, the festival provided a unique opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts and share our passion for the written word.
As we look back on this unforgettable weekend, we invite you to join us in reliving the highlights of Citi of Books’ gallery during the 30th Los Angeles Times Festival of Books—a true celebration of the literary arts! A book included in the gallery was “GG Cleans House: Learning Teamwork” by Renee Goodwin.
An award-winning author, Renee Goodwin, has an undying passion for education. Early on she witnessed her mother and father work during the day then study at night to earn their degrees. Her parents sacrificed much to ensure that Renee and her siblings had the opportunity to attend schools where they could receive a good education.
In “GG-Cleans-House-Learning-Teamwork,” Mrs. Gee announces to GG, “It is cleaning day.” Immediately, GG knew her help would be needed, and she was ready—laundry, dishwashing, mopping, and the most fun of all, vacuuming. But is Mrs. Gee ready for GG’s help?
Come share GG’s action-packed cleaning day as GG learns the rewards of teamwork.
“Watching GG, my beloved and always entertaining Cane Corso companion inspired me to take a leap of faith to share in writing her creative moments learning life lessons. GG Cleans House: Learning Teamwork I hope encourages parents, grandparents, teachers and all children to read, learn and enjoy hearing stories from the voice of “GG” an amazing puppy.” – words from the author
