Book Week is going to the dogs! This month we’re warming your cockles by turning the Paws Party into a storybook playground. 

From Hairy Maclary to Harry the Dirty Dog, Snoopy to Old Yeller, some of the best-loved stories show us what we already know: that dogs deserve a starring role in our lives. 

Dress up as your favourite book characters, bring a blanket and something to read, or simply join us with your furry friends for a pawsome morning of tales and tails!

Here’s how the story unfolds:

✒️Dear dog: The furbulous Ms Constance Spry’s Letter Writing Service will be in the park, turning stories about your pooch into beautifully typed letters with their unmistakable secretarial style.

🌳Books in trees: It’s back for Book Week! Haig Park becomes an outdoor bookshelf, with books in trees for you to find and keep. Follow your nose and see what story you sniff out.

📚Give a good book a new leash on life: Bring along a book
you’ve finished and swap it for another story to take home. Because pre-loved books deserve a good home too.

📸Once upon a pawtrait: Put your dog front and centre in our
Book Week photo booth and snap a picture worthy of the front cover. Come in costume or just bring your main character energy.

🎹Piano tails: Wayne Kelly is back at the keys with a playful mix of jazz, favourite tunes and musical stories to warm up your Sunday morning.

🛍️The market chapter: Keep the story going with a wander
through the Haig Park Village Markets, where there’s plenty to browse, nibble and sniff out before heading home.
