IBBY Honour List 2014 + Giveaway

Last Monday (September 15), I woke up to the news that “Dana’s Trip” made the IBBY Honour List 2014 for Illustration. The diplomas were handed by the President during the IBBY International Congress held this year in Mexico City – September 10-13.

From IBBY’s Site: “The IBBY Honour List is a biennial selection of outstanding, recently published books, honoring writers, illustrators and translators from IBBY member countries. For the 2014 Honour List, 52 countries have sent 150 nominations in 39 different languages. Selected for the 2014 list are 57 entries in the category of Writing; 50 in the category Illustration; and 43 in the category Translation.”

You can see a timeline of how it all happens here, and a video with all the winners here. Go to 11:07 for “Dana’s Trip”! :)

“Dana’s Trip” (Rihlat Dana) was written by Salha Ghabish, and published by Kalimat in 2012. I got a chance to work on the illustrations. It is not available in the US for purchase but I have a few copies sent from the publisher last year.

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED

And, since I want to celebrate “Dana’s Trip” IBBY Honour List 2014, and 2,500 likes on my Facebook Page, I am giving away a signed copy of the book.

    and I shared the image below with a mention to your Facebook page.

    As I mentioned on facebook, I think it would be SUPER exciting if you gave some of your sketches away (because they are SUPER inspirational) but that might be asking too much.

    Juana,
    It has always been an honor and a privilege to watch your artistic career grow and materialize. I was a fan from the start and a cheerleader throughout. Now I shout about each of your accomplishments and roar about what you have to show the world. You go, woman. Your fan, always. M
