Coffs Conference Celebrates National Year of Reading

Love being an ambassador for the National Year of Reading.

Just came back from two days in Coffs Harbour when I was invited as an Ambassador to speak to 100′s of kids, parents, teachers and fantastic teacher-librarians from the Lismore Diocese.

Spoke about Room to read www.roomtoread.org – partner with National Year of Reading – bringing literacy to the children of the developing world.

It was a celerbation of reading and loved sharing my Ships in the Field, JACK books, ‘Butterflies’, ‘That’s Why I Wrote This Song’ and special bonus is that Coffs is beautiful!

Thankyou to Mary Walsh Deputy Principal at Mary Help of Christians School Sawtell and Karen Bale teacher-librarian and all the librarians.

Had a great time.
