Storylines Notable Books Background Storylines Notable Books Background The Storylines Notable Book List was established in 2000 to reflect the wide-ranging achievements of New Zealand authors and illustrators. The Storylines Notable Books list allows for the inclusion of anthologies and works by New Zealand writers and illustrators published internationally. The Notable Books List is selected by a panel made up from the Storylines community, of current children’s literature professionals. These include past and present members of the Storylines management committee, all of whom have a wealth of experience and knowledge in the field of children’s literature and many have served as judges for the New Zealand Post Book Awards (and its previous incarnations) and the LIANZA children’s book awards. The panel meets regularly throughout the year to discuss recently published books. Up to 10 books can be selected for each category. www.storylines.org.nz Storylines Notable Books 2012 lists for books published in 2011 Storylines Notable Picture Books Books for children and/or young adults where the narrative is carried equally by pictures and story.

Kate Warner AM email: [email protected] and Mr Richard Warner web: www.cbcatas.org Editor: Penny Garnsworthy blog: http://cbcatas.blogspot.com/ ________________________________________________________________________________________ From President Richard Our year has started well with collaboration between Tamar Valley Writers Festival, Friends of the Library Launceston and the Sustainability Learning Centre allowing us to tour Carole Wilkinson in Launceston and Hobart. While it was disappointing to see so few CBCA members at the public talks, it was heartening to see so many new people at the Hobart session. Thank you to Jenny Dudgeon (Manager, Sustainability Learning Centre) for her hospitality. April 18 sees the announcements of this year’s Notable Books, with the Short List announcement on May 20. CBCA’s Book of the Year Awards are the premier children’s literature awards; being made a notable or short listed is a huge boost to an author/illustrator’s career. One of last year’s short listed authors, debut novelist Tamsin Janu, captivated young audiences at the Tamar Valley Writers Festival. More important dates for your calendar: The Hidden Stories Forum on 7 September and 11 September. More details soon! I will be attending my last CBCA National AGM at the end of this month. CBCA Branches around the country are finding it difficult to fill committee positions. Please consider your own involvement carefully – can you help keep CBCA Tasmanian Branch alive?

  • Thirty Years of New Zealand's Children's Literature (1970-1999)
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 447 491 CS 217 287 AUTHOR Mills, Wayne F. TITLE Thirty Years of New Zealand's Children's Literature (1970-1999). PUB DATE 2000-07-00 NOTE 12p.; Paper presented at the International Reading Association World Congress on Reading (18th, Auckland, New Zealand, July 11-14, 2000). PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) Speeches/Meeting Papers (150) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Childrens Literature; Elementary Secondary Education; Foreign Countries; *Literary History; Publishing Industry IDENTIFIERS Book Awards; Literary Awards; *New Zealand; *New Zealand Literature ABSTRACT In 1970 New Zealand had a small output of just 15 titles in children's literature. But much has happened over the last 30 years to ensure that New Zealand literature for children has an established footing: authors known and unknown have been encouraged to write, and publishers have been encouraged to seek the highest production standards. This paper explores some of the significant developments in children's literature in New Zealand. The paper first considers the establishment and conferment of various children's book awards. It then discusses organizations such as the Children's Literature Association, founded in 1969 with the express aim of promoting the best books for children, and the New Zealand Children's Book Foundation, which began in 1990 and has grown and expanded to promote its national ideal of literacy and good literature. The paper also discusses the annual Storyline Festival and the Writers in School Scheme, designed to allow both primary and secondary schools the opportunity of having New Zealand authors. It considers children's books in different genres during the 1980s ("a time of growth") and the 1990s (an average of 101 titles a year).
