Just been alerted to Picture Book Month - an international initiative to designate November as Picture Book Month, encouraging everyone to celebrate literacy with picture books.

Every day in November, there is be a new post from a picture book champion explaining why he/she thinks picture books are important - check out Suzanne Bloom's post here.

They are doing this because in this digital age where people are predicting the coming death of print books, picture books (the print kind) need love. And the world needs picture books. There’s nothing like the physical page turn of a beautifully crafted picture book.

Join the celebration and party with a picture book!
