THEME GUIDE

The theme of TD Canadian Children’s Book Week 2012 is Read a Book, Share a Story and will celebrate the importance of sharing stories. 2012 marks the 100th anniversary of Lillian H. Smith becoming the first trained children’s librarian in Canada, and in the British Empire. Our Book Week theme highlights the important role that librarians play in sharing books and creating lifelong readers.

The Canadian Children’s Book Centre has carefully sourced Canadian children’s books that involve libraries and story sharing, for parents, teachers and librarians to share with children. Readers will be introduced to Nicholas, who with the help of the head librarian, has to return a lost chimpanzee to the storybook where he rightfully belongs, and to Jennifer, a young storyteller who finds herself stranded on an island where the elders disallow the telling of stories. These and many other characters will share their stories with Canada’s young readers.
