International Children's Book Day, IBBY 2020


Hunger for Words


International Children's Book day is celebrated on 2nd April which is the Birthday of Hans Christian Andersen.  Every year IBBY invite one of their sections to prepare a poster and an ICBD message.  This year these come from Slovenia. You can see fifty IBBY people from around the world reading the message in a range of different languages.  Our Australian Children's Laureate Ursula Dubosarsky read the message which was written by Peter Svetina translated by Jernej Zupanic on behalf of IBBY Australia.





Here is a link the full message in English.

The IBBY ICBD poster was sent to the sections in the form of a cube.
