Every year a book is chosen and read simultaneously in libraries, schools and homes around Australia.

At City of Melville, they won’t let a pesky time difference stop us!

National Simultaneous Storytime is *technically* meant to be all at the same time all over the country (we DO know what simultaneous means), but we’d all have to be up very early in WA to make it on time.

So instead, zoom on down  for a special space-themed session of your regular Storytime (or reserve a place at the booked session) and celebrate this year’s book – Philip Bunting’s ‘Give me some space!’
