BILBY Awards
Books I Love Best Yearly
The BILBY Awards are the Children's Choice Awards organised by The Children's Book Council of Australia (Queensland Branch).
Each year throughout Queensland hundreds of children select their favourite book and nominate it for the BILBY Awards. It is a wonderful opportunity for young people to exercise their voice, to have a say about what they read. This is their very own book award.

2018 BILBY Awards is now closed.
Information about the 2019 awards will be uploaded in early 2019

There are three readership categories:
Early Readers
Picture books and story books for readers under 8 years old
Younger Readers
Books for readers aged 8 to 12 years old
Older Readers
Books for readers over 12 to 18
Selection Criteria:
The book can be from anywhere in the world, but must be written or translated into English
It cannot be a previous winner
In each category, the award is for a specific title, not for a book series
