About National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS): NSS is an important annual event that aims to encourage young children to read and enjoy books as well as teach them the value of literacy.

Each year an Australian title is chosen to showcase our talented Australian authors and illustrators. This year we will be reading The Truck Cat written by Deborah Frenkell and illustrated by Danny Snell.

About the book:
Some cats are house cats. Some are apartment cats.
But Tinka is a truck cat. Tinka lives everywhere.

Along with his human, Yacoub, Tinka travels roads wide and narrow, near and distant. But no matter how much they travel, home feels very far away – for both of them.

Yacoub drives his truck to make a living, learning the landscape of a new country along the way, and longing for connection. When Tinka and Yacoub are unexpectedly separated, they are determined to find their way back to each other – and, in doing so, might find more than they expected …
