Children's author John Carr creates some carrtoons for our campaign  New Zealand author John Carr, who has written a whole mess of children's books, has been kind enough to create some Carrtoons in support of our School Libraries Transform campaign. Thank you John for supporting school libraries. We love authors and the books they write. And their humour!  Thank you Philippa Werry for your beautiful poem about visiting schools and their libraries.      Rosmini College have jumped on board by creating their own posters to use at school. We can't wait to hear how the students and staff at your school respond to the campaign.
