We're trialling using a blog to send information out to members. Tell us if you think 
it is easier to use this format rather than emails or Facebook.
It has been a shocking week with news of the earthquake in Christchurch. We're thinking of all those writers and illustrators and members' families who have been displaced - we hope they are all safe. Two of our members come from Christchurch. We know Maria is okay and hope that Jo is too.

In such a bitter sweet week, we congratulate Diana Menefy for being shortlisted for the New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards with her book Shadow of the Boyd. We also congratulate Adele Broadbent for the release of her latest book Just Jack, which received a fantastic review on Radio.
This week Jackie Rutherford's first book When the Cats Away comes out. Look out for her book in the shops! We'll review it on http://kidsbooksnz.blogspot.com/ soon.
