Joe Tasker and Maddie Moate are live from Southend for an inspiring Live Lesson to celebrate this year’s World Book Day.

Join Joe Tasker and Maddie Moate from Southend Central Library for a fantastic World Book Day Live Lesson to celebrate the pleasure of books and reading.

Maddie, Joe and a team of young ‘Library Legends’ will be tasked with creating a pop-up library - a special space designed to inspire everyone to get reading.

We learn about genres, the difference between fiction and nonfiction, and the questions to ask to find your perfect book.

Along the way, amazing authors Alex Falase-Koya, Dr Sheila Kanani, Rosie Jones and illustrator Vivian Truong will be offering advice to bring the pop-up library to life. And some famous faces fill us in on their favourite fiction and nonfiction books!

This educational programme will be packed with tips and advice on how to create an inviting and welcoming space that helps all types of readers find books that they love.
