Tom Tom was robbed!!!!

Well it is 12.19pm and I have just managed to get on the CBCA website to see the list of book winners for book week this year.
they are:

Early Childhood Book of the Year 2009


'How to heal a broken wing' by Bob Graham.
Now while Bob Graham's book is a nice little book, for educating an audience and for absolutely beautiful pictures you really can't go past Tom Tom. I feel that Rosemary Sullivan has been ripped off, even though she did get an honour award. after all no-one remembers the honour awards, just the winner.

Picture Book of the Year 2009


'Collecting Colour' is the winner of this category. This is a nice enough book, even though I did get a bit emotional when reading 'Home and away' this winner is well thought out.

Younger Readers Book of the Year 2009

The winner is Perry Angel’s Suitcase. I haven't seen this book yet, so I can't really comment.

Oh well yet another award ceremony that is bound to get a community of librarians talking....
