We are delighted to announce the shortlist for the 2020 Stratford - Salariya Picture Book Prize! We had an incredible, record-breaking number of entries and have somehow managed to whittle it down to these final few, we would like to thank everyone who entered and say a big congratulations to those shortlisted!
The Stratford - Salariya Picture Book Prize which welcomes all unpublished authors and / or illustrators to write and illustrate a children's picture book is now open for its fourth year. This week we are delighted to share with you an insight into the life of Camille Whitcher, Cambridge School of Art graduate, and her prize experience as she won the 2017 competition with her fantastic book 'Luna and the Moon Rabbit!'
Ever wondered where an Author gets their inspiration or how their career came to life? We are back today with another interview style post with one of our fantastic Author / Illustrators, Dorien Brouwers, to give you an insight into her life! Just like our interview with Manlu Tu, every day over on our Instagram page we have been sharing pictures and answers from Dorien herself.
You may have already spotted that earlier today we announced our 'Children's Picture Book Christmas Wishlist', we just couldn't resist sharing all of our Christmas titles in an exclusive post too! This selection of books is not only perfect for younger readers but older readers too and who doesn't love being able to make their own decorations?
Whether you're an early bird or a last-minute llama, we wanted to take away the stress of finding that perfect Christmas present for the children in your lives. Whether you make a note for Father Christmas or save it for yourself, this 'Children's Picture Book Christmas Wishlist' will hopefully help you feel a little calmer in the run up to the big day!
These picture books are some of team Salariya's favourites and we cannot wait for you to get your hands on them!
