Lennie’s Gift an Easy Read book launch

Casey Gray

An Easy Read book launch of Lennie’s Gift promises to be a unique and interactive event where the power of storytelling and creative writing is explored as part of the 2025 Words on the Waves Festival on June 4.

Disability advocate and author Casey Gray will be aiming to help build stronger connections between adults with disability and their support workers.

Lennie’s Gift, a ghost story in Easy Read for adults with intellectual disability, will be read before participants undertake a writing activity designed to foster empathy through collaboration.

It will be held at Erina Library Workshop Space at Erina Fair between 1.30pm and 2.30pm on Wednesday, June 4.

Participants must register for a free ticket to attend at https://wordsonthewaves.com.au/book-launch-program-2025/ 

The venue has physical access and accessible bathrooms and will be casual and flexible.

Plain English is used throughout and organisers are happy to work with interpreters or support communication in other ways.

Activities are inclusive and accessible for all needs and abilities.

Anyone needing help to join can email Casey at projectsforpurpose@gmail.com or talk to Casey at the event.
