Vote now in KROC Awards

Voting for the Kids Reading Oz Choice (KROC) Awards is open for 2020. This is your chance to tell us who your favourite Australian authors are.

Each year since 1990, City of Darwin Libraries organise and host the The Kids Reading Oz Choice (KROC) Awards which gives children across the Northern Territory the chance to vote and celebrate their favourite Australian author and favourite Australian book. By voting in the KROC Awards they can reward the Australian children’s books that have most inspired, amused, terrified, enlightened and engaged them.

The KROC Awards encourage reading across all ages and in many genres as well as acknowledging many talented Australian authors. Plus there are heaps of prizes to be won, just by voting.

Children can vote across 4 categories:

  • Picture Story Books
  • Fiction for Younger Readers
  • Fiction for Older Readers
  • Fiction for Years 7 to 9
