Join the virtual National Simultaneous Storytime

National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) is held annually by the Australian Library and Information Association (ALIA). 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. 

With the recent constraints due to COVID-19, NSS will look a little different this year. It’s going virtual, but it’s going to be just as fun. There are a number of ways to virtually engage – whether from your home, school or childcare facility.

NSS will be held at 11am on Wednesday 27 May. This year’s book is Whitney and Britney Chicken Divas.
