Join us these school holidays for a children's storytime and creative activities focusing on books from the National Library of Australia’s publishing team.

NLA Publishing books will be brought to life with live readings of select titles.

The book reading will provide inspiration for the children to take part in activities designed around each storytelling session.

The books being read in the Thursday 29 September session will be:

  • The Gum Family Finds Home by Tania McCartney and Christina Booth
  • I Wish I Could Be a Superhero by Susan Hall and Cheryl Westenberg
  • Tilly's Reef Adventure by Rhonda N. Garward

This event is free, but bookings are essential.

This activity is also available to book into on the following dates:

A black and white logo with a black circle. Inside the circle is an image of the library building and the text 'Celebrating 50 Years. National Library of Australia Publishing.'
