The winning titles will be announced at an awards ceremony in June 2012







The Greenaway Medal is a very prestigious annual award for children's picture books, which specifically awards excellent illustration. It has been going since 1955 and is named after the popular 19th century illustrator Kate Greenaway.







It was also featured in the Guardian's 'Reading With Kids' suppliment published a couple of weeks ago. The suppliment is full of brilliant recommended reads for children aged 0 - 7, both classics and new. It also gives you tips on how to get your children into reading and a helpful Q&A by Julia Eccleshare.
