Book Week: what is it?

In 1946 the Children's Book Council of Australia established annual book awards to promote children's books of high literary and artistic quality.  Winning women authors received a camellia and men received a handshake! 

Today, these awards are the most influential and highly respected in Australia bringing winning authors both fame and fortune.
