The Hindu Young World – Goodbooks Award is the first in India to recognise different genres in children’s publishing and to honour authors and illustrators for their invaluable contribution. The award was introduced to promote excellence in children’s writing and illustration in India. It aims to acknowledge innovative publishing trends, and recognise children’s literature as an independent and important field. This is the third year of the award. The winners will be felicitated at The Hindu Lit for Life festival in Chennai on January 14, 15 and 16, 2018. This year, the awards will be given in four categories: Best Picture Book (Story), Best Picture Book (Illustration), Best Book (Fiction), and Best Book (Non-fiction). The winners will receive a cash prize, a trophy, and a citation.
