1 The Return of the Informational Picture Book! Veronica Forsyth , 2019 single work column
— Appears in: Magpies : Talking About Books for Children , May vol. 34 no. 2 2019; (p. 20) 'An international trend from the publishing industry is to partner the traditional children's picture book format with factual, meticulously researched information. The resulting text can be described as an Informational Picture Book (IPB) (Isaacs, 2013). This genre, providing both desirable information learning and age appropriate features such as fictional characters and supporting illustrations, was first acknowledged in the initial years of awards for Australian children's book publishing. The presence of significant numbers of IPB titles in the 2018 Children's Book Council of Australia (CBCA) Shortlist indicates a return to popularity for this style of children's book.'
