. . . were announced at the Bologna Children's Book Fair last week. Japanese author Nahoko Uehashi of Japan received the author award, while Roger Mello of Brazil received the honor for illustration. Uehashi is know for her Moribito books, which I'm happy to say are on our YA shelves. Roger Mello's work is proving much more elusive, but he's holding books in the photo, so I will keep looking for them!
