Appointed NSW judge for Children's Book Council of Australia 2012-13

I am really honoured to have been appointed as the NSW judge for the Children's Book Council of NSW for the 2012 and 2013 awards. This means reading, reviewing and analysing the 300-400 new Australian children's books published each year. It will be a huge job but one that I will relish as a I have had a long and passionate career involved in children literature. Of course my grandchildren will be involved in giving opinions about which ones they enjoy!
