Each year across Australia, the CBCA brings children and books together celebrating CBCA Children’s Book Week. During this time schools, libraries, booksellers, authors, illustrators and children celebrate Australian children’s literature and you will often see book character parades and talented librarians creating amazing displays. Generally, the CBCA Book of the Year winners announcement is the third Friday in August and CBCA Children’s Book Week starts the following day.  For more information, please see our CBCA Book Week page.
