Children's Book Week turns 80!

2025 is a milestone year for The Children's Book Council of Australia, as they celebrate 80 years of Children's Book Week. Celebrations will run from 16 - 23 August.

The theme for this year is Book an Adventure. The adventurous spirit of this theme is brilliantly captured in artwork form by the feature artist, none other than Penguin illustrator Jess McGeachin, author of The Space Between.

Have a look at our book picks for 2025 Children's Book Week so that you can prepare your adventurous celebrations.
