It’s that time again to share our love of reading with the whole of Australia as part of National Simultaneous Storytime! The 2024 book is The Truck Cat, written by Deborah Frenkel and illustrated by Danny Snell. 

The Truck Cat is a story about cats and humans, immigration and identity, and homes lost and found. Along with his human, Yacoub, Tinka travels roads wide and narrow, near and distant. But no matter how much they travel, home feels very far away – for both of them. When Tinka and Yacoub are unexpectedly separated, they are determined to find their way back to each other – and, in doing so, might find more than they expected. 

Join us at Elsternwick and Carnegie branches and read along with the rest of Australia during this very special StoryTime.
