We have so many great authors and illustrators in New Zealand and I love shouting about them. There have been a bumper crop of books from NZ authors and illustrators this year and there are strong contenders for the 2013 New Zealand Post Children’s Book Awards. Some of these books have been included in my other Top 10 of 2012 lists but I wanted to do a separate list to highlight these spectacular NZ books.

My Best Friends Are Books 
Ransomwood was fantastic and I thoroughly enjoyed Red Rocks 🙂
The Nature of Ash is waiting to be read *sigh* and The Brain Sucker and the The Tongue Taker are high on my list of need-to-get!!
I love your lists Zac, some awesome books featured 🙂
I’m just about to head to New Zealand for Christmas, I’ll check these out! I haven’t heard of any of these books.
