Alison Lester loves travelling around Australia, helping children turn their stories into books. During her two years as the Australian Children’s Laureate* she is working on a book of her own, a collection of children’s writing, painting, drawings and photographs. The book will feature children from all over Australia describing their lives, hopes and dreams.

If you would like to be involved in Alison’s project here are some possible activities to inspire you:

Boori Monty Pryor, the inaugural Australian Children’s Laureate and celebrated author, performer and poet invites you to join him to...

“spread the write words to make ours a nation of readers and storytellers!”
Boori would love to know…

• When did you tell your first story?
• Do you know the footsteps you’ve been walking on?
• What is the story from your place?
