Congrats to the legendary Libby Hathorn on winning the prestigious
Asher Award
for her picture book
A Soldier, a Dog and a Boy
Illustrated by Phil Lesnie,
published by Hachette Australia, in hardback
for ages 7+
A young soldier far from home, a boy orphaned by war, and the stray dog that brings them together. A powerful story of the Somme.
Richly deserved - congrats again Libby!
