Read, talk, sing, dance, and laugh the whole way as you stop at each panel to discover something new.

Walk or ride- it’s the perfect outdoor activity for families with young children.

Every few months the story will change! It’s an exciting way to connect to your local library.

Gymnastica Fantastica!

The current title to read at The Storytime Way is Gymnastica Fantastica!, by Briony Stewart.

Quick! Come and see! Something fabulous, it’s . . . me!

Gymnastica Fantastica! is a joyful and exuberant picture book about a child discovering and attempting new physical skills and putting on wonderfully imperfect shows for whoever will watch them.

Join Gymnastica, a small person with big energy, as they bend and balance, bounce and roll, attempt a cartwheel and a spectacular trapeze flip-out finale. Written in playful rhyming text and with brightly energetic and appealing illustrations, this is a book that kids and parents alike will find irresistible to read aloud and delight in its energy and humour.

We are able to bring you Gymnatica Fantastica! thanks to Hachette Australia.
