We welcome kids and big kids alike to a fun Sunday morning filled with storytelling, creativity, playtime and yummy snacks.

This very special edition of our popular People of the Books series welcomes bestselling children’s authors Bec Feiner (Clyde the Greyhound) and Tami Sussman (Tiny Tradies), who will bring their beloved stories to life in an engaging and interactive session. Following story time, the action will move from our Millie Philiips Gallery to the Emanuel Woollahra Preschool playground, where kids will enjoy refreshments and hands-on activities facilitated by the incredible PJ Library.

The main event is designed for kids aged 2-6 years, and their grown-ups, and Netzer Sydney will be running activities specifically for children aged 7 and up. An event for the whole family.

PROUDLY PRESENTED BY EMANUEL SYNAGOGUE & EMANUEL WOOLLAHRA PRESCHOOL

ABOUT BECK FEINER

Beck Feiner is an illustrator, designer and author living in Sydney. Her first book, Aussie Legends Alphabet, was conceived when teaching her kids the alphabet and discovering a lack of engaging materials. Beck has since created five more children's books that include If I Was Prime Minister, My Folks Grew Up in the '80s and Big Love, which received a 2022 CBCA Notable Award. Her art and stories shine a light on social issues and tap into the mood of the time to promote harmony and diversity. Beck hopes to have a long career creating art that everyone loves.
