National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) at Kalinda

On Wednesday, May 22nd, Kalinda will once again be participating in National Simultaneous Storytime. NSS is held annually by the Australian Library & Information Association. Each year, a picture book written and illustrated by Australian authors and illustrators is selected to be read simultaneously in schools, libraries, homes, and children’s facilities all over the country - and the world.

The book selected this year is Bowerbird Blues, by Aura Parker. You can find out more about the book and the author here: https://www.illustrated.com.au/ 

This wonderful and fun event aims to promote the value of reading and literacy and is a great demonstration of how reading and books can connect people across places, time zones, ages, and cultures.
