Starting with the January 2005 issue, Parents’ Must-Read magazine and the Red Mud Book Club jointly launched the “Top 10 Outstanding Children’s Books” annual award event, aiming to provide families with children aged 0–8 with trustworthy children’s book recommendations.
We will carefully select our favorite outstanding works from the large number of children’s books currently on the market and recommend them to readers in installments. Readers are also welcome to vote for their favorites. At the end of the year, we will invite experts in the field of children’s books to conduct an evaluation. Finally, combining the evaluation opinions of readers, the editorial team, and experts, we will release the annual Top 10 list (an annual original picture book recommendation list has been released since 2015). For full details, please see:https://www.hongniba.com.cn/fumubidu/about.htm
