This can include book character dress up parades, book donations, author visits and workshops. All of these events help to make the week a very unique, colourful and fun celebration.
Each year the week is given a special book based theme. Champion's Read is this years theme. This event is the longest running children's festival in Australia. The CBCA also put up a shortlist of books which are awarded and recommended each year.
What's your favourite book and why is reading important you?
I have a long list of favourite books though I would have to say The Twilight Saga and The Hunger Games Trilogy. Because their both so captivating and jaw-dropping.
Reading is special to me because you can be taken into a completely different world, real or imaginary. Books take us on a journey, an adventure. A reason to escape our world and indulge in someone else's.
Is this just for Australia or all over the world too?
