National Simultaneous Storytime is held annually by the Australian Library and Information Association. It has been a very successful event in past years at Lake Heights as well. Every year a picture book, written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator is read simultaneously in libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places around the country.

By facilitating National Simultaneous Storytime, we aim to:

· promote the value of reading and literacy;

· promote the value and fun of books;

· promote an Australian writer and publisher.
