Storylines FestivalThe Storylines Festival of New Zealand Children's Writers and Illustrators has been a highlight of many families' calendars since 1993. The festival – particularly the Free Family Days around the country – give children (and adults!) a chance to meet their literary heroes - authors, illustrators, storytellers or book characters.
