Paint Inner West REaD is an early literacy movement that is driven by many champions across the community. Research promotes reading with children from birth to prepare them with the skills they need to succeed in school and beyond. We aim to make resources available for sharing stories by providing storytime events Book Swap Boxes across the Inner West. We have a book loving mascot, a pelican named Garranga Bumarri who loves to make appearances were stories, songs, and playing happen because books make brains grow!
