Shaun Tan, Astrid Lindgren and Bologna

Shaun Tan is the 2011 Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award winner, with its NZ$1 million prize.

On Shaun's wonderful website he writes an account of being told he had won, and what it means for him... http://www.shauntan.net/news1.html

And from the Astrid Lindgren Memorial blog which has more reports about the award, there is also a giddy 60 second video of the Bologna Children's Book Fair which might have to do for some of us until we actually get there one day !
