Children’s Book Council of Australia Multistoried Conference

Last Thursday I flew to Adelaide with a group of writer friends to attend the Children’s Book Council of Australia Conference.

It was a time to immerse ourselves in all things close to and surrounding children’s literature – sharing our love and passion of words and books and listening to fellow authors and illustrators reading, presenting, launching and debating current trends in our wonderful industry.

During break times we shared coffee, wonderful food, tears and laughter and rekindled friendships with interstate friends and acquaintances all the time feeling honoured that we were surrounded by a wonderful array of beautiful books for Australian children to read themselves, have read to them or to simply gaze at in wonder.
