About Tohby: Tohby Riddle is an award-winning writer, illustrator, cartoonist, designer and sometime editor based in Sydney. He has written and illustrated numerous well-loved picture books; written a young adult novel; was the cartoonist for Good Weekend for nearly ten years; and is a former editor of The School Magazine, a literary magazine for children published by the NSW Department of Education.
Kids Kiddle contains a full list of all of Tohby's books. If you have access to the Storybox Library you can view three of Tohby's books. Here are some titles which are sure to be in a school library here in Australia.
This week I am sharing the art of several illustrators who have been nominated for the 2022 Hans Christian Andersen award.
The Hans Christian Award is presented every two years by IBBY to an author and to an illustrator, living at the time of the nomination, who by the outstanding value of their work are judged to have made a lasting contribution to literature for children and young people. The complete works of the author and the illustrator will be taken into consideration in the selection process. The award is explicitly designed to be an 'international' work, and it is not explicitly given to a certain country.
