  • International Children's Book DayThis link opens in a new window "Since 1967, on or around Hans Christian Andersen's birthday, 2 April, International Children's Book Day (ICBD) is celebrated to inspire a love of reading and to call attention to children's books" (iBbY). The Libraries at Moorabbin and Glen Waverley (where we have storybooks to borrow) have created displays to celebrate International Children's Book Day 2025. The theme this year is The freedom of imagination. So we're featuring books that encourage creativity and imagination, including fantasy stories, imaginative worlds, and diverse illustrations (or any stories that spark our own imagination). Read more about ICBD.      Some storybook titles:  The lost thing Mix it up The dress up box Beautiful oops Where the wild things are There's a hippopotamus on our roof eating cake Nikki Hind: Dressed for success Diary of a wombat Bush tracks Little miss magic and other Little Miss books There's also resources to learn about imagination, creative ability and creative activities for children.
