An annual reading event that promotes literacy and togetherness will be read by Aussie musician and author Josh Pyke.

The Storytime session will have everyone in Australia reading Pyke’s Family Tree at the same time.

Josh Pyke told Deborah Knight he runs draft stories by his own children.

“I run drafts by them all the time and if they wander away, then I knew that I wasn’t onto a good thing.”
