UPDATES (July): unfortunately, I had to drop out of the jury last minutes due to conflicting business trip to Tokyo.
Children’s book artists,
Society of Illustrators’ The Original Art – The Fine Art of Children’s Book Illustration – call for entries is now open.
Last year, I had an honor of receiving Founder’s Award for my first kids book Barbed Wire Baseball, and this year, I am coming back to the award as one of 7 judges.
If your book is published in the US (exclude self-published books), you should apply to this prestigious award celebrating the art of children’s books for 34 years.
