We are really proud to have been shortlisted for the British Book Awards Children\u2019s Publisher of the Year Award 2025<\/strong>. We\u2019ve won this award \u2013 called a \u201cNibbie\u201d because of the gold nib-shaped award \u00a0\u2013 twice in our 14-year publishing history, once in 2017 and once in 2020. We have appeared on 11 of the last 13 shortlists. It\u2019s a huge recognition for our authors, our illustrators, our excellent team, our exclusive publishing partners \u2013 The University of Cambridge, the National Trust and the British Museum \u2013 and the support of our suppliers and customers around the world.<\/p>\n

Other \u2013 really impressive \u2013 publishers shortlisted are Bonnier, David Fickling, Magic Cat, Scholastic, Simon and Schuster, Sweet Cherry, Usborne and Wonderbly.<\/p>\n

Erin Murgatroyd<\/strong>, our indefatigable Rights Director, has been shortlisted for Rights Professional of the Year<\/strong>. The judges said of her:<\/p>\n

\u201cErin Murgatroyd joined Nosy Crow as an assistant with no publishing experience seven years ago; now she\u2019s rights director at one of the best-known and fastest-growing children\u2019s publishers around. Murgatroyd and her team of six made rights and co-editions worth around half of its sales in 2024. As well as travelling to ten countries to nurture big partnerships, she carved out many new smaller markets.\u201d<\/p>\n

So we are really thrilled for her! We also know that she\u2019s the first to recognise that the success of all rights sellers depends on the excellence of the books they sell and the support both of the rights team around them and other teams within the business \u2013 editorial, design, production and marketing.<\/p>\n

You can read the full list of shortlists in every category on the Nibbies website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The winners\u00a0will be announced at The British Book Awards on Monday 12th May \u2013 wish us luck!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
