The Children’s Books Festival takes place all over Ireland during the month of October. As you know, here at MS READaTHON HQ we are book mad so we're encouraging kids and teens all over the country to pick up a book and discover the magic of reading.
There are loads of activities running in libraries, schools and arts centres throughout the month so get involved if you can. The list of events just keeps going - from author readings, writing and illustration workshops to storytelling and quizzes there are plenty of reasons to check it out!
So why not get involved and find out what's happening in your city, town or village around the country. This year's theme is Stories are for Everyone and with a poster designed by one of our all-time faves Chris Haughton, we say check out the festival programme now!
