The ‘Inside a Dog’ Inky Awards shortlist has been announced! There are some pretty excited Aussie authors right now – their books have been chosen (as author Claire Zorn noted on Twitter) ‘by real-life young adults‘. The Inky Awards recognise high-quality young adult literature, with the longlist and shortlist selected by young adults, and the winners voted for online by the teen readers of InsideaDog.com.au. Anyone between the ages of 12-20 can vote to decide who wins. See below for the Shortlist and the link to Inside A Dog to enter your vote (ages 12-20).
