The 5th Digital Ehon Awards Judging Panel

Now in its 5th year,
this year’s Digital Ehon Award received a record number of entries from creators in 32 countries!
I go through hundreds of entries every year,
and it seems to me that Digital Ehon books have evolved rapidly over the past year.
The results will be announced on Saturday, May 27, at the STEAM KIDS event at the University of Tokyo!
I’m absolutely thrilled to be receiving messages from overseas saying, “I’ll be there on the day of the event!” Here’s a little peek at the judging session that
took place the other day♪ Since I’m a huge fan of Tomoe
Shinohara, I invited her to join us this year.
She’s even planning to fly in from overseas for the awards ceremony. I’m so happy! (*^^*)
