… what a ride!
I’m thrilled Danny Snell and I got to share The Truck Cat with more than 2.2 million children around the country (and the world!). That’s serious pinch-me, life-goal sort of stuff.! Thank you ALIA and Hardie Grant for making it happen, Springvale Library for hosting the live stream, and the amazing Sally Rippin for MC-ing it!
Most importantly - thank YOU if you joined in the fun - reading at home, school, kinder or daycare, or at a local library near you. Celebrating stories is the best!
Missed the livestream? You can catch up here:
And ALIA’s wrap-up of the event is here (it’s mind-boggling)!
And… now here’s a bunch of photos I didn’t have anywhere else to put - including an adrenalin-fuelled one taken two minutes before the livestream began, a relief-fuelled one with our wonderful in-person audience of students from Athol Road Primary a few minutes after it finished, and a moment for my cat shoes (of course!).
