Curious Creatures, Wild Minds 2020

What a great time to catch up on some reading! There are so many fantastic books that are available online while libraries are closed. Our local library has thousands of audio books and e-books available to borrow using your normal library card to log-in:

Recently the Children’s Book Council of Australia announced the shortlist for this year’s awards with the 2020 theme of Curious Creatures, Wild Minds. We will get to celebrate the announcement of winners during Book Week in October (it’s been moved from August) with a fun day where we dress-up as book characters and celebrate the wonderful world of literature. I can’t wait!

While we are busy covering and cataloguing all the new library books, as well as the wonderful book donations from families, how about checking out the shortlisted books?

Stay well everybody and keep reading, because, in the words of Dr Seuss - 

 

“The more that you read, the more things you will know.

The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”
