Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand and the Margaret Mahy Estate are delighted to announce the return of the Margaret Mahy Illustration Prize for a third year.
The Margaret Mahy Illustration Prize 2021 offers a unique opportunity for an unpublished New Zealand-based illustrator to illustrate Mahy’s classic children’s story There’s A King in the Cupboard.
Working closely with the Margaret Mahy Estate, Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand will award a $1000 cash prize, a $500 library of books and the opportunity for this project to be developed into a published picture book.
