2012 Hans Christian Andersen Award: Four Illustrator No minees
Thanks to everyone for a great discussion of our "Global Reading" topic dur ing the first few weeks of June. If you have any final thoughts, please fee l free to share them.
Now we'll move from global reading to global creativity in the second half of June when we look at the works of four illustrators who are nominees for the 2012 Hans Christian Andersen Award: John Burningham (United Kingdom), Bob Graham (Australia), Chris Raschka (United States), and Peter Sнs (Cze ch Republic). Each of these nominees from a different nation has created b ooks that are widely available here in the United States, and each has a di stinctive vision reflected in his work for children. (The Hans Christian An dersen Awards , sponsored by the Int ernational Board on Books for Young People (IBBY), are presented every two years to an author and an illustrator whose complete works have made an imp ortant and lasting contribution to children's literature. Nominees come fro m IBBY member councils in countries around the world and usually include an author and an illustrator from each member nation.)
We look forward to your thoughts on these four illustrators' bodies of work and overall contribution to children's literature.
