On the 27th of March, a librarian from Porirua Library was invited to our school to talk about the NZ Book Month.
She recommended a few of her favourite stories that changed her life. There were tickets for some people to be able to see and hear about thoughts and recommendations in the library. There were different type of stories, from picture books about someone's life, war, to sad and funny chapter books. Some of the books had even turned into movies! She told us about the children's book awards. She was very humorous and she had a lot of expression too.
Overall, we think that everyone that had an experience really enjoyed it and hoped to go again!

What a thoughtful review of a session I found both touching and fun. There is nothing nicer than reading to a crowd who truly want to be read to. I would love to come again, and look forward to seeing any of you when you are in the Porirua Library neighbourhood. Stay interested, and remember, BOOKS CHANGE LIVES!
