National Simultaneous Storytime is back for its 26th year! Join us as we share another book with the nation. Free event, bookings not required.
Every year a picture book, written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator, is read simultaneously in libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places around the country.
Join us at your local library for StoryTime with craft.
The National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) book for 2025 was The Truck Cat (Written by Deborah Frenkel and illustrated by Danny Snell. Published by Hardie Grant Children's Publishing.)
Some cats are house cats.
Some are apartment cats.
But Tinka is a truck cat.
Tinka lives everywhere.
