Book Week
"Find your Treasure"
17 - 24 August 2018
Each year, many schools and public libraries from all over Australia spend a week celebrating books and Australian authors and illustrators. Classroom teachers, teacher librarians and public librarians develop activities, offer competitions and tell stories relating to a theme to highlight the importance of reading. The theme in 2015 is... Books Light Up Our World. Book Week is the longest running children's festival in Australia, celebrating its 65th birthday in 2010.
