Come along to the Book Lovers Coffee Club, a series of free monthly events that are open to the public and being held at our retirement villages in Mt Eden, Milford and Meadowbank. Bring a friend, enjoy morning tea and hear the story behind the stories of some of New Zealand’s most talented authors.
David Veart covers the crazes, collecting and playtimes of generations of big and little New Zealand kids in Hello Girls and Boys a New Zealand Toy Story. Trained as an anthropologist, David worked as a Department of Conservation historian and archaeologist for over twenty-five years. This book is more than a collection of stories about toys. It explores the role of toys in our lives and how changing fortunes have changed the way we play.
Event starts at 10:30am and finishes at 11:30am on Wednesday 27th July
Meadowbank Village, 148-168 Meadowbank Road, Meadowbank
