Winner, Picture Book of the Year 2004
|
These annual awards are
for books with an implied readership under the age of eighteen, and are presented in
five categories.
The Judges assess entries for the Awards primarily for literary merit,
including cohesiveness in significant literary elements; language chosen
carefully for its appropriateness to the theme and style of the work
with proper regard to the aesthetic qualities of language; and
originality in the treatment of literary elements as they apply to the
form of the work. Judges also consider quality of illustrations, book
design, production, printing and binding.
