How are there only 4 more months left in 2017? “Where-Has-The-Year-Gone?!” Hysteria aside, it is Book Week here in Australia.
A perfect time to celebrate the books that I think are the best picture books of 2017 (so far.)
With Christmas just around the corner, you might want to pin some of these for Christmas presents. (Yes. I just mentioned the C-word.)

Since writing my last post on Indigenous Australian Picture Books, many more picture books written and illustrated by Indigenous authors and illustrators have been sent our way.
Seeing as this week is NAIDOC Week- a yearly celebration of Indigenous achievements and culture- it seemed a perfect time to create a follow-up post with the books that have become staples on our bookshelves.

I’m a teacher with a penchant for picture books and art projects. I want to raise kind and creative kids. Despite being committed to alla these things, I still often feel like all the ideas have left the building when I’m looking for arty inspiration. On many an occasion, I’ve been supremely exasperated by an art or craft project gone pear-shaped. I’m often intrigued by new art processes but am too hesitant to try them or just don’t have the right supplies. Often I get to the end of the day with such brain drain that bedtime stories are a drag, not a joy.
Despite living in a home surrounded by books and art supplies, I’m always on the lookout for ways to connect with my kids through reading and creating. Introducing KidArtLit.
