The BookPeople Kids' Reading Guide - Children's Book of the Year award recognises the childrens' new release that booksellers most enjoyed reading, marketing and handselling during the previous year.We believe it is a special award because it is decided by the people who care enough to personally recommend and put a book in the hands of the reading public. 

ABA Kids' Reading Guide Booksellers’ Choice - Children's Book of the Year winner will be announced at BookPeople Conference Gala Dinner and Awards Night in Adelaide on Sunday 18 June.
