Media release
16 October 2013
There is no doubt; books
published for education are one of a kind. The entries for this year’s CLNZ
Educational Publishing Awards are rich in culture, colour and bursting with useful content for
teachers and students alike. Wrapped in a glossy, well designed cover, these
books highly appealing and quite frankly, hard to resist.
One judge described the diverse
range of entries as a ‘pot pourri of content’. While overall the standard of
entry was extremely high, the finalists stood out as having the most relevance
for their category and a definite ‘wow’ factor.
