National Bookstart Week

This year, National Bookstart Week will be from 11–17 June 2012.
This year we'll be baking cakes, blowing up balloons and getting dressed up as we celebrate National Bookstart Week with this year's theme of parties!
With family events up and down the country, in libraries, children's centres, bookshops and elsewhere, be sure not to miss our annual celebration of sharing stories, books and rhymes.
We'll also be giving away exclusive booklets – Busy Bear's Party , gorgeously illustrated by John Prater – so come along and join in the fun.
What better way to celebrate Bookstart's 20th year?
Stay tuned for more information!
