| The shortlist for 2003 CILIP
Greenaway Medal has been announced.
 |
| Anthony Browne is
one of the shortlisted illustrators. |
Previous winners included on this years list are Shirley Hughes
and two times winner of the award Anthony Browne. There are
five other illustrators on the list; Debi Gliori, Mini Grey,
Dave McKean, Bee Willey and Chris Wormell.
The Kate Greenaway Medal, established in 1956 and named
in honour of the distinguished illustrator is awarded for
“outstanding illustration in a children’s book”.
Sister award to the CILIP Carnegie Medal, it is judged
by an expert panel of children’s librarians, and follows
the same unique process of nomination, and judging.
Since the bequest left in 2000 by children’s book
and illustration collector, Colin Mears, the winner receives
a cheque for £5000 in addition to the coveted medal.
Both the Carnegie and Kate Greenaway Medals are awarded
annually by CILIP: the Chartered Institute of Library and
Information Professionals. The 2003 winners will be announced
at a celebrity led ceremony at the British Library on Friday
9 July 2004.
