The catalyst for my IBBY connection began in 1978 when I was appointed Children’s & YA Librarian at Ryde public library in Sydney. Buying books, part of my job description led me to a treasure trove, The Children’s Bookshop at Beecroft owned and run by future IBBY Australia President Robin Morrow AM.
In 1979, I attended The Art of Storytelling workshop run by IBBY at the University of Sydney. A highlight was storytelling concerts at night. It still gives me goosebumps remembering the haunting retelling of “The fisherman and the changeling”. the singing of dance to your daddy till the boat comes in by the gifted Australian storyteller. Speakers included Caroline Feller Bauer (USA) and Grace Hallworth (UK).
Two years later I drew the straw at work to attend the LAA/NZLA libraries conference in Auckland NZ. At the professional development session one afternoon Ena Noel OAM was doing what she did best, promoting IBBY. The memory of the storytelling workshop was strong. I could not help myself!! My hand shot up, I stood up and enthused about IBBY. Ena inspired me to become a lifelong IBBY member, supporter & promoter.
Ena Noel OAM was doing what she did best, promoting IBBY
I have attended 3 IBBY congresses, Oslo 1988, Williamsburg 1990 and Berlin 1992. Congresses are great places to meet authors & illustrators and others with a shared passion. I roomed with a stranger, Melbourne teacher/librarian Joan Amiet and we left as friends. At Oslo I reconnected with Norwegian author Tormod Haugen who had come to Australia a few years earlier to translate Patricia Wrightson into Norwegian.
Ena always organized dinner and a talk in Sydney to celebrate the birthday of “our dear Hans”. To this day they continue in Sydney (pre covid) and it is wonderful to sit back and get lost in authors and illustrators talking about their work. One year I remember Ena’s introduction of Alan Garner was spellbinding and his response was equal. A favourite IBBY memory among many. Recently Tohby Riddle spoke, Australia’s nomination for the 2022 HCA Medal for illustration.
In Williamsburg 1990. I saw Tormod Haugen receive the HCA Medal for writing & I was part of a self-guided tour. “Seven Little Australians” travelled by train to New York city, Boston and Connecticut. In the latter we visited Weston Woods, known by NSW public libraries for putting books into film. Joan and I were thrilled to take Ena to Central Park NYC, opposite East 74th St to see the statue of “dear Hans” reading to the ugly duckling.
We scurried through Grand Central Station almost missing our train to Boston. Robin had the tickets, I had Ena’s bags, others went ahead to hold the train if they could. We passed a station master who called out “I want to marry that little lady” pointing at Ena!
My role at Ryde Library changed in the 1990s but I continued to be involved with IBBY. In 2005 to celebrate the bicentenary of Hans Christian Andersen I helped IBBY Australia President Robin Morrow AM with assistance from the Danish Embassy host guest speaker world renowned translator Patricia Crampton at Tara school Parramatta.
That year I represented IBBY at the unveiling of a Hans Christian Andersen statue at Observatory Hill in Sydney by Prince Frederik and Princess Mary of Denmark. As guests mingled, I saw Princess Mary had finish talking to a young boy. I gave myself about 20 seconds to introduce myself, say who and what I was representing. Princess Mary probably caught none of my babble but I was happy to have said Ena’s name out loud to a Danish princess in Sydney at an event honouring “dear Hans”. Ena Noel OAM IBBY Australia President died in 2003. This event would have been very special to Ena.

The IBBY Australia Encouragement Award for a young emerging writer or illustrator.
The panel of judges is pleased to announce that the 2022 winner is:
Gary Lonesborough, The Boy from the Mish (Allen & Unwin).
Set in a contemporary Australia town, The Boy from the Mish tells the story of Jackson who is finding out about himself and who he wants to be during a long, hot Australian summer. Jackson’s house is bustling with Christmas plans and visits from relatives including his aunt, cousins and the mysterious stranger Tomas who is just out of jail and arrives with his own baggage. Jackson has a lot of thinking to do over this summer; navigating the highs and lows of a new romance as well as questions around whether he returns to school or leaves for good. Jackson is looking for answers and a path forward, but also wants to live in the moment and enjoy the summer on the Mish.
In this brilliant and moving debut, the author skilfully weaves in issues such as racism, police intimidation, and homophobia but also many joys, the support of elders and family, community, identity, self-belief, friendships and one epic love story. The judges were impressed with the maturity of the writing, the strong and engaging plot development shown by the author, and the way he tackled the issues of growing up, all written with a powerful command of voice.
Gary Lonesborough is a Yuin writer, who grew up on the Far South Coast of NSW as part of a large proud Aboriginal family. Growing up a massive Kylie Minogue and North Queensland Cowboys fan, Gary was always writing as a child, and continued his creative journey when he moved to Sydney to study at film school.
The Ena Noël Award has been significant in identifying talented emerging writers and illustrators since its inception in 1994. Thank you to all the publishers who entered books by young creators for this award. IBBY Australia is pleased to make this announcement to coincide with International Children’s Book Day (ICBD) 2022.

Ao imergir em livros você já se imaginou morando no apartamento de algum personagem querido? Viver o romance em Pemberley na casa de Mr. Darcy? Receber cartas voadoras na sala dos tios de Harry Potter? Não há dúvida de que muitos livros mexem conosco, talvez em escapismo inconsciente (ou consciente mesmo), nos fazendo sonhar como seria morar naquele lugar e viver naquelas aventuras. Pois bem, graças à magia do cinema hoje em dia é possível visitar, e até mesmo morar, em vários lugares icónicos que foram usados para retratar as histórias de vários clássicos da literatura.

Um bom livro é aquele que é capaz de nos prender, envolver e imergir em seus escritos. Mas assim como acontece na realidade, as relações, a atração e o amor têm mudado ao longo dos anos. Dos poetas que usaram metáforas para se referir ao mais puro desejo sexual aos autores atuais que conseguem descrever em detalhes um encontro sexual, esta breve história do sexo na literatura aborda vários autores.
