BookTrust Storytime is an exciting new library experience for families. Take part at selected Libraries during our regular Story & Rhyme sessions over five weeks, beginning 24th February.
Discover a new book each week from a special collection of picture books perfect for enjoying with children aged 0-5, chosen by the BookTrust.
Each week there will be a new sticker to collect. Families can vote for their favourite of the five books to help decide who will be the national BookTrust Storytime winner, announced in April.
This is an interactive, in-character storytelling workshop, where Snow and Ice, two imaginative characters stuck indoors on a rainy day with their friends, argue over what to create. In the end, they decide to build a blanket fort spaceship and embark on an adventure to an undiscovered planet. As the story unfolds, participants work together to construct the blanket fort, which becomes their vessel to launch into space.
