Birthday Book Adventure

The CBCA is celebrating 80 years of sharing the magic of Australian stories with children this year – and you’re invited to the party!

Join the CBCA Birthday Book Adventure for a day of free activities including crafting, creator workshops, a book parade, and the chance to chat with some of Victoria’s most beloved authors and illustrators.

This year’s CBCA Children’s Book Week artist Jess McGeachin will be on hand to help you Book an Adventure. Join Anna Walker for a froggy-themed craft workshop inspired by her book Snap! Come for storytime with Angie Cui, author of My Mum is a Bird and also Olivia Muscat – author of My Name is Jemima.

Adventure awaits!
