Flavour of the month<br />
A taste of what’s to come in March<br />
March is a month of celebration. First<br />
comes World Book Day (Thursday 5<br />
March), when children are given free<br />
book tokens and reading is all about<br />
pleasure and fun. It’s followed by<br />
International Women’s Day on Sunday<br />
8 March - the citywide celebration<br />
of great women that’s always too<br />
big to fit into a single day. Then<br />
Manchester turns green for the annual<br />
Irish Festival (6-20 March), which<br />
celebrates its twentieth birthday this<br />
year. Here are our local choices for all<br />
three:<br />
Alexandra Park<br />
and the Big Book<br />
Adventure<br />
Celebrate World Book<br />
Day in the park! Dress<br />
as a character from your<br />
favourite book and enjoy<br />
a Family Treasure Hunt.<br />
There’ll be magical tales<br />
from the brilliant storyteller<br />
Andy Benfield, plus the Big Book Swap. Bring a<br />
children’s book, swap it for a different one. It’s that<br />
simple – in fact it’s even simpler: if you don’t have a<br />
book to bring, you can take one home anyway. There<br />
are goody bags for all Treasure Hunters and the café<br />
will be open too.<br />
Alexandra Park (meet at the Pavilion),<br />
Sunday 8 March, 11.30am-2pm<br />
