Congratulations - The Shortlists Are Out!


We were thrilled to see our Patron, Jack Lasenby, once again make the short list for The New Zealand Children’s Post Book Awards along with other members of the Wellington Children’s Book Association. Congratulations to everyone on the shortlist. 

The Storylines Notable Book List is out and you will see members names scattered amongst the list. This is often called the unofficial Longlist of the NZ Post Children’s Book Awards.

Well Done Everyone!
