Book Week Kit

Our Book Week Kit will help you celebrate Canadian children’s books during the week-long festival. Award-winning artist Wallace Edwards has created one of his stunning paintings for our 2009 poster. Wallace’s image will be featured on all components of the Book Week Kit, which includes a poster to hang in your classroom or library; bookmarks to hand out to your students; and a theme guide, which lists Canadian sports books for children and young adults, and is packed with activity ideas for using these books in the classroom, library or at home.

Get the most out of TD Canadian Children’s Book Week by ordering a Book Week Kit and celebrating Gold Medal Reading! in your school or library during Book Week and all year long!

The Book Week Kit includes:

  • a spectacular full-colour poster by Governor General’s Award-winning illustrator Wallace Edwards.
  • a set of 30 full-colour bookmarks.
  • an annotated theme guide, with lists of Canadian sports books for children and teens, with activities and ideas on how to use these books in the classroom, library or at home.
  • a program with suggestions for celebrating Book Week with or without an author or illustrator visit.
  • information about the CCBC’s online Directory of Authors, Illustrators and Storytellers Available for School and Library Visits.
