readinghour.au/" target="_blank"> Next Thursday, 14 September, is the Australian Reading Hour. What is it, you ask? Well, you choose one hour of your day to snuggle up on the couch or run a deep bath or jump on the treadmill or sit under a tree, and read a book! You can read it to yourself. You can read it to a child. The child could read it to you. Or someone could read a book to a teddy bear. The choices are endless! To celebrate readinghour.au/" target="_blank">The Reading Hour, seven authorly friends and I--all scbwi/" target="_blank">SCBWI members--got together at Woden Library in Canberra (thanks, Pam and Sam!) for a wonderful event--two hours of stories with a bunch of fabulously engaged kids. Things kicked off with kerrymalone.au/" target="_blank">Kerry Malone, reading two books, including her gorgeous You Can Do It, Joey! 3.bpspot/-MjZgVjSPtL4/WaouTJr0fxI/AAAAAAABLsE/8Rl8-f3IY5EWo9_9ivSppoYmoL0
