Sydney Writers Festival out-of-season Family Day: Storytime Spectacular

Join us for two wonderful storytime sessions with an array of Australian talent.

Warm up your voices, pack your dancing shoes and prepare yourselves for a fun and playful time as the much-loved, multi-award-winning creators Stephen Michael King and Josh Pyke welcome their heartwarming picture book Some Days You’ll Have Days Like These. Featuring live music and drawing.

Following that, the award-winning Wiradjuri poet Jazz Money and four-time Archibald Prize finalist Jason Phu are on hand to introduce you to their delightful debut picture book The Frog’s First Song, inspired by First Nations Creation stories and Chinese parables.

Attendance is free but registrations are required. Register here.
