Bookstart activities were launched in Suffolk libraries in
October 2005. These activities are free for young children and
their parents or carers. There are three activities on offer -
‘babybounce’ for tots up to eight months, ‘tot rock’ for those aged
eight months to two years old and ‘storytime’ for children aged
three - four years

Author visit
Accompanied by the Bookstart bear,
Children's author Ian Whybrow visited libraries and
a Children's Centre in the west of the county on Tuesday
5 February. He thoroughly entertained all the children by
reading some of his stories and talking to them.
Ian is probably best known for his Harry and his bucketful of
dinosaurs series of books.
He will be returning to Suffolk to visit more libraries on 12
September and 17 November.
