Event:

Please join us in a celebration of the 2023 CBCA Shortlist, with a deeper dive into three of the categories:
- Picture Book
- Younger Readers
- Older Readers

You’ll hear from the current and past ACT Book of the Year judges, and the ACT Shadow Judging Coordinator.

We’ll look at the criteria used for judging these categories - especially useful for teachers guiding students through the Shadow Judging program, but interesting for anyone wanting to know more about children’s literature. And we’ll explore ways that children could creatively respond to these books.

Following the event all attendees will receive a digital “resources kit” with teaching notes and more ideas for the shortlisted books.

Peter from The Book Cow, Kingston will have shortlisted books for sale on the day.

Afternoon tea will be served.
