Enhanced my skills as a bookseller, focused my vision for what I want to achieve long term and helped me to feel part of a wider community

"Attending the ABA was an incredible opportunity as a UK bookseller to see how it’s done elsewhere. I learned many things I could implement in my own space and felt reassured that bookselling is universal."

- Leanne Fridd, Bookbugs and Dragon Tales, Norwich
