Recommendations Showcasing New Zealand Fiction

We've been working with the New Zealand Book Council and author/illustrator Nikki Slade Robinson to come up with some great posters that promote New Zealand authors to our children and teen audiences. We've made them available for you to print out and use in your libraries. The posters are an excellent form of reader's advisory.  

Thanks to Pam Jones, Zac McCallum, Senga White, and Steph Soper from the NZBC who have helped us pull these together.  As this is the first set of posters we've done, we have deliberately chosen some older works so they don't get forgotten.  We'll be refreshing them periodically (as great new work is published) so if there is a title or author we've missed then let us know.  We want to showcase all our amazing New Zealand writers.

If you want some great reads then check out the recommendations that have been made by some of the top childrens librarians from around the country.  

Each page contains a Readers Advisory of the best fiction from 2016 and a complementary poster:
