Imagine thousands of people reading the same book at exactly the same time! It’s called National Simultaneous Storytime and nearly a million people took part in 2016.
The featured book this year was I Got This Hat by Jol and Kate Temple (illustrated by Jon Foye). Townsville CityLibraries invited me to read the ogre book as a warm up to the main event as they know I have a pretty decent collection of kooky hats and The Trouble With Ogres also features some fancy headwear. It was a hoot.
I was chuffed to be invited to take part in a nationwide event that promotes reading (and hat appreciation), thanks TCC Citylibraries.
