Prix Québec-Wallonie-Bruxelles de littérature de jeunesse facts for kids
The Prix Québec-Wallonie-Bruxelles de littérature de jeunesse is a special award given out every two years. It celebrates great children's books written in French language.
This award honors writers and illustrators from Quebec (a part of Canada) and the French-speaking community in Belgium. Since 2005, one winner is chosen from Quebec and another from Belgium. The award helps new children's books in French get noticed. It also helps build connections between Quebec and Belgium through literature.
