The little book that just gets bigger...


Page from uTshepo Mde: Tall Enough by Mhlobo Jadezweni and Hannah Morris

Hannah Morris is one of my favourite illustrators, so I was pleased to find out (a bit late, actually) that her book has won yet another award. So far uTshepo Mde: Tall Enough has been a joint winner of the Exclusive Books IBBY SA Childrens' Book Award, and been selected for the international IBBY Honour List. Now it's won a Merit Award in 3x3 magazine.

You can see more sample pages from the book here, buy a copy here, and read Hannah's blog here.

uTshepo is published by Electric Book Works. Have a look at their site to see what else they have; I'm really looking forward to Louis Barnard's Wie is Dit?
