Change of date for Christchurch Event

Please note the change in date for the Bookchat – our original date clashed with too many other events.

Prior to the announcement of the winners of the NZ Book Awards for Children and Young Adults, “Painted Stories” (Te Tai Tamariki) hosts our traditional “Best Picks” event.  It is always fascinating to see whose predictions have “nailed it”.
