The Bologna Children’s Book Fair is the place to be when you’re into children’s book publishing and awards can hardly get any more prestigious than those from Bologna. This year, for the first time there will also be a special award for the best children’s book app, the BolognaRagazzi Digital Award. It has a new jury of international experts in digital media and illustration and is run in collaboration with the Children’s Technology Review (USA).
Roberta Chinni, Project Manager of the Bologna Children’s Book Fair explains: “The Bologna Ragazzi Award has always been about recognizing quality work and this is as true for the printed book award as it is with this new category for digital. We applaud and congratulate everybody on this first shortlist”.
The shortlist is the jury’s selection of the 20 best children’s book apps out of 252 entries from 179 publishers from 25 countries. Our entry was Timo and the Magical Picture Book and we’re on the shortlist. The overall winner from the finalists list will be announced at the TOC Bologna conference on Sunday March 18th 2012.
