The Children’s Book Council of Australia (CBCA) has been the home of the Book of the Year Awards since 1946. We are your connection to story. Those stories connect our communities, and through them children grow shared values and empathy. In these uniquely Australian stories celebrated on our Shortlist, our children will see themselves.
