Children’s Book Week Storytime

Join us in launching this year’s Children’s Book Week with a special Storytime event. 

Author Corinne Fenton will read her shortlisted Children’s Book of the Year, Lionel and Me, a touching tale that celebrates inclusion and the power of friendship. 

Afterwards, get involved in a hands-on workshop where your kids will have the chance to jump in the backyard with Lionel and do some crafty activities. 

Perfect for kids aged 0-8, start celebrating Book Week early and book your spot now.

Delivered with the Children's Book Council of Australia, Victorian Branch.
