Book Week brings literary characters to life
Book Week has returned to Australian schools, with students dressing up as their favourite literary characters including Spider-Man, Willy Wonka, and Where's Wally. Launched in 1945 to encourage Australian children to read, Book Week has grown into one of the biggest events on the school calendar. Teachers and librarians at schools like St Michael's in Blacktown report seeing more creative costume choices and increased student engagement with reading.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
