  • Laudatio Given by Patsy Aldana, Jury President, Hans Christian Andersen Award 2016 at HCA Award Ceremony, August 2016, Auckland, New Zealand
    Laudatio given by Patsy Aldana, Jury President, Hans Christian Andersen Award 2016 at HCA Award Ceremony, August 2016, Auckland, New Zealand It was an honour to chair this remarkable group of jurors from all over the world. They came from such diverse professional backgrounds and from very different countries and cultures. Yet the meetings and discussions were extremely harmonious and the process of selection remarkably consensual. The jurors in alphabetical order by country: Lola Rubio Argentina an editor and librarian Dolores Prades Brazil a publisher and reading expert Wu Qing China professor of English literature Kirsten Bystrup Denmark a children’s librarian Yasmine Motawy Egypt a professor of children’s literature Shoreh Yousefi Iran a pre-school educator and editor Andrej Ilc Slovenia a publisher of adult and children’s books Reina Duarte Spain a children’s publisher Susan Stan USA a professor of children’s literature Maria Beatriz Medina Venezuela the director of the Banco del Libro and a professor The first criteria for the selection of the shortlist and the winners was the artistic excellence of the writing and of the art. The jurors were also interested in seeing how the creators had evolved in the course of their careers and whether they had been willing to take creative risks. It was also deemed very important that the books produced by the authors and illustrators be of significance—that important things were at stake in their work. And finally, did their books speak to children? Were these creators people whose books could be read by children all over the world, be accessible and meaningful to them, and enrich their lives and understanding? Illustrators The shortlist is: Germany: Rotraut Susanne Berner Iran: Pejman Rahimizadeh Italy: Alessandro Sanna Korea: Suzy Lee Netherlands: Marit Törnqvist And the winner of the 2016 Hans Christian Andersen Award for Illustration is: Rotraut Susanne Berner from Germany Berner’s work is at all times recognisably hers, while simultaneously being intensely responsive to the demands of the text.

Recently-Published Recommended Books by and/or about the AAPI Community Arranged by Age Published from 2015 to early 2021 May 2021 Background A month ago, we formed a subcommittee to produce a short list of recommended books, from our Best Books List archives, centered on AAPI characters, authors, and illustrators. This was in direct response to spikes in unprovoked anti-Asian violence in the past year. That process sparked many debates over which ones to include. After that experience, the subcommittee returned to our archives for a closer inspection. We wanted to create a larger resource for readers from infancy to age 18.We also wanted to be able to deliver it within a reasonable timeframe, so here is how we created the list you see below. Methodology 1. First, we combed our recent Best Books list (BBL) archives for books that we have recommended, from our most recently published list (2020) back to the 2016 edition (meaning, books published from 2015 to 2019).

  • FOR Children Hello Everybody, My Name Is Suzy Lee And
    The Damroo Project Creating Content(ment) for Children International Seminar and Exhibition Images and Worldviews Suzy Lee Illustrator, Singapore Suzy was born in Seoul, Korea and received a BFA in Painting from the Seoul National University and an MA in Book Arts from Cam- berville College of Arts, UK. Her picture books include Shadow - published by Chronicle Books, Wave - also by Chronicle Books in 2008, Mirror, which was by Edizioni Corraini. And they’ve been published worldwide and translated into many languages. She has been awarded two times, the New York Times Best Illustrated Book Award from the US and the Premio FNLIJ Luis Jardim- O Melhor Liv- ro de Imagem that’s from Brazil and won the gold medal for original art by the Society of Illustrators in US. Besides picture books she has produced her book works by Hintoki Press, her own artist book press. And she is currently living and working in Singapore. Hello everybody, my name is Suzy Lee and thank you very much for inviting me here, I’m very happy to be part of this wonderful gathering here. I found it very interesting, your talk that I’m a kind of new generation but who makes a book, but it will be in- teresting to see because my books are wordless books, image oriented, so somehow it is linked to Peter’s talk. A picture book is quite a complex object. I see a picture book as a whole, not just a mere content of a story with just some illustrations. So everything should be considered to make a picture book.
