Amnesty CILIP Honour for Carnegie and Kate Greenaway - Teaching resources 2016

We have partnered with CILIP (the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals) to produce the new Amnesty CILIP honour to commend human rights in children’s literature.

Spanning both the Carnegie fiction and the Kate Greenaway 2016 picture book awards, our judging panel will choose from both shortlists the books that best illuminate, uphold and celebrate human rights. 

Here you can download free resources to explore the shortlist with your classes and shadowing groups.
