Recent Picture Books Translated into English

 


“We are much richer for the books from other countries … to bring us something of the wider world, its flavor and the different ways of thinking and doing things …"

Julia Marshall (from Gecko Press) IN Magpies Magazine Volume 33, No. 3, July 2018, p. 14.

IBBY Australia are presenting a series of virtual talks about translated books and the process of translation. I have prepared the first talk which is a showcase of recent titles. Many of these have very different stories along with exquisite art by very talented illustrators from around the world.

Here are some of the titles which were included in the presentation prepared for IBBY Australia members. A blue title link under the cover will take you to my post so you can read more.
