It was a glorious night catching up with authors, illustrators, teacher librarians and other book lovers.
We were delighted that two of our local authors' books were long listed.
Tania McCartney's book Merry Everything, illustrated by Jess Racklyeft, was long listed for the Picture Book of the Year Award.
Cate Whittle's book Trouble and the New Kid, illustrated by Michael Stephen King, was long listed for the category of Younger Readers.
There were so many wonderful books chosen this year and as per usual some books that you hoped would make the list but didn't.
I was fortunate enough to have reviewed the following Notable Books for Kids' Book Review.
