Every year millions of kids in Australia hang out for The CBCA Book of the Year Awards. So do their parents, teachers and librarians - not to mention authors, illustrators and publishers!

There are categories for every type of reader and for every age group. The judges take enormous care to select works that are relevant, well written, engaging, and often challenging.
