Young readers between 4 and 17 years, can once again have the extra enjoyment of holiday reading by joining the Hinchinbrook Shire Library Readathon.

Our own Ezine was asked to join the WIRED Digital Showcase in late November to display the work submitted by Hinchinbrook  residents through the Can of Words website. Response to the Ezine was positive from children and adults alike, so we look forward to more in the Hinchinbrook Community submitting their work for publication in Can of Words.
