New Zealand Post Children’s Book Awards Judges Announced
New Zealand’s premier children’s book awards judges are on the hunt for books that inspire a lifelong love of reading.
With more than 130 nominated books to choose from, children’s literature consultant Rosemary Tisdall, writer and reviewer Trevor Agnew, and former journalist, now children’s bookshop co-owner, Ruth McIntyre, have a long summer ahead of them as they select the very best in young reads to compete as finalists in the 2010 New Zealand Post Children’s Book Awards.
Mrs Tisdall, judging panel convenor for the Awards, which are now in their 14th year, says she’ll be looking for fresh ideas, characters who linger and books that leave her thinking long after she has closed it.
"We expect to see some excellent writing from New Zealand’s favourite and established authors, and we hope to discover some wonderful, new talent,” says Mrs Tisdall.
”We are looking to have our imaginations captured by books with a difference, so that the intended audience – the young people of New Zealand and beyond – will have reads that entice, teach, and therefore encourage a lifelong love of reading.”
The winners of the NZPost children's book awards for 2010 are:
Non-Fiction Category: E3 Call Home by Jane Hunt.
Picture Book Category: Old Hu-Hu by Kyle Mewburn, illustrated by Rachel Driscoll
Te Reo edition: Hu-Hu Koroheke, translated by Katerina Te Heikoko Mataira.
Junior Fiction Caterory : The Loblolly Boy by James Norcliffe
