Many attended the much-loved free event by Chorley Council over the weekend and were treated to story time by Sir Lindsay Hoyle, musicians performing stories through the power of music alongside interactive workshops and sessions for kids. The popular, colourful book bench trail also made a welcome return across the town centre, thanks to local schools, nurseries and community groups for creating them.
Check out some of our pictures from the event.
