Bookish adventures from the past coupla months.

An incredible trip to St George, Queensland, for @somersetstoryfest South West, @joshhortinelawriter’s stunning launch thanks to @dymockssydney Books in Bars, our joyous, teary-eyed in convo @gertrudeandalice (captured so perfectly by artist @phillipmarsden), @jacobson_megan’s cosy launch @therosereadbookshop, and a trip down south for @thisisbrooked’s launch in Torquay with @torquaybooks where I bawled my eyes out (and played tennis!) ❤️

Next week, Adelaide for Once Upon a Festival! @ouafadelaide 🙌🏻

A wonderful launch at @thepbc for a wonderful book from acclaimed creators @lisanicolauthor and @michelstreich_illustrator. The Better Machine is a timely tale filled with charm and chuckles, destined to be on a lot of ‘best’ lists in the not-too-distant future. And how cool to have a life-size, fully-functioning Better Machine at the launch?! Impressive production values!! 😍 And great to see lots of author/illustrator pals there celebrating the release of this very relevant picture book that kids and grownups will love! ❤️

@cbcansw Lunch with the Stars ✨ Western Sydney edition!

I had the pleasure of sitting with students from @riverstone.school and their inspiring TL Ms Elderton as we listened to the irrepressible @whatmicksaw and drew along with the amazing Tom Jellett.

The kids were abuzz and the energy in the room was next level! Such bookish joy!

The day wouldn’t have possible without Teacher Librarian @mshall_teacherlibrarian and her team - and a day showcasing the importance of TLs and the role they play in inspiring our kids to engage with literate - so vital for our world.

Brava @mshall_teacherlibrarian

📚 Three days of literary fun!

Children, families and educators across the Central West recently joined us at Storyfest Out West.

From student sessions and interactive activities to our workshops for grown-ups, the programme invited people of all ages to celebrate storytelling.

✨ For young people in regional Queensland, encountering stories and storytellers that speak to their world is particularly impactful.

These storyteller interactions sparked curiosity, confidence and new ideas, supporting long-term opportunity far beyond the festival itself.

We would like to thank our Out West sponsors and supporters, festival partners @outbackpioneers and Longreach School of Distance Education, volunteers and the Storyfest Squad.
